Good recovery there, impressive replacement/ repair 😎 Finding one would be the problem and on a bit of a deadline so had to crack on with what i had Finally the drivers side is done might not be the best looking but its solid just needs a coat of paint then crack on with the passenger side Project images are available to Club Members Only, Click to become an OMOC Member.

Ed L Posted November 24 Share Posted November 24 How do you stop welded in patches from corroding from the inside out, obviously you can do sills with waxoyl or similar ,but what about areas where there is no access? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weld through zinc primer is what I use on all of the patches that will not be able to get to afterwards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
