Re: The English are coming! Or..another C10 in the Motherland.
So… After way more hours than is probably economic may I present the panel, which….
![]() When compared to…. ![]() is a vast improvement… However, I appear to have a rather large high spot near the arch which I am pretty sure was part of the original damage to the bed side. To quote the illustrious Mr. James May…Oh Cock… Where I have stuck another bit of Martins truck into the flanks I have a rather low spot but that is a bit easier to fix with a heat gun and a spot of Mr Isopons finest. ![]() Decided that I am making things worse by chasing the dents and pin holes so am going to wait until my good friend Mr J ( he of classic Porsche restoration fame) comes and makes it all wonderful. Or less like a fat girls arse… During all of the pulling, pushing, welding, grinding, welding. grinding, swearing etc I made a bit of an interesting discovery. Can you spot what it is yet? ![]() The bed side ‘stay’ on the damaged side was different by a total of over 2”, not sure, but it looks like a rear stay. Anyway, quick measure. Cut, File, and stuck in a fixture ![]() all was good and managed to get the panel pretty much where I wanted it. Well apart from the high spot… Grrr…. ![]() Now embarking on the next repair before the bed goes back on using, this… ![]() this… ![]() and, most importantly this. ![]() Stay tuned Campers! P. 😃 |
