I have had a frustrating day. I started off fairly optimistic that by close of play i would had both sills fitted and finished. I was wrong. By about 11 o'clock i had finished the offside with the addition of a section welded to the lower rear wheel arch. http://i.imgur.com/l5qeXhv.jpg I moved onto ...

Just cut off the nearside sill. Its much worse than the offside sill i did yesterday. I found plastic bags stuffed in the rear end of the sill and more bodged repairs.

Thanks for the comments chaps. I was hoping to get to Pride of Longbridge, but i wont be able to now. Just come back from Germany (Nurburgring!) and have stuff to catch up on.

They even have the cut outs to go around the jacking points and the step so they sit behind the front wings. Now I just have to find some time to fit them. http://i.imgur.com/s8VOW0S.jpg http://...

I was very impressed with the detailed swage lines and details at the ends. Plus they even have the cut outs t...

That car phone is fantastic.

Sills ordered. Just need to clear some space in the garage and get them welded on.

Any progress with this yet? Love the look of a mk1 saloon with that body kit.

It would be a shame to break it.

Yes thanks!

Ahh ok, I get it. Thanks for the clarification.

Just seen this thread and that the car exists. Fantastic stuff!
