Back on the subject of George.
I tackled the chassis repair last night and today.
I decided I would make a sleeve for inside the rail, and fit a replacement outer rail from the donor car.
So first up I cut out the old rusty rail.
Then I made the new inner sleeve.
I then cut the donor rail out, I cut it larger than needed so I could trim to suit.
Next was to trim the sleeve to suit the replacement rail.
I then welded the inner sleeve to the top section of original rail.
After drilling some holes in donor outer rail for plug welding I then fitted and welded in the donor outer rail.
Wheel arch side (yet to grind down welds)
And engine bay side, all ground and linished.
