 |
|
Well, after a monstrous amount of welding that needed to be done she has now passwed her MOT, just fitted a new radiator and replaced all the alternator brackets after noticing they had been "modified" to fit a different belt.
This is what we found inside the boot, under the o/s rear window.
This is under the o/s/r wheelarch!!!!!
 #
All sorted now, these guys really know how to weld!
All welding done and new radiator and other bits going on.

Looks good Alex.
A couple of questions:
- What is the paint code for the wagon? I have acquired one the same colour but no paint code on it
- What is the rotten panel in the first pic?
- And did your welders make up the sill panels or did you manage to track some down?

Hi Niel, the panel in 1st pic is in the boot on the o/s. behind the carpeted trims, its the one under the fixed window. The welders (Alan & Mark) fabricated everything! Took them 4 weeks. They have even re-fabricated the rear jacking points for me, their work is outstanding. (They also painted Lorraine's red 16v last year which now sits on you're drive).  .
The paint code of the burgundy 33's is 146, mine is slightly different though coz when it was re sprayed a few years ago they added a slight tint of purple into it so I have a different code for mine.
