If one sill is bad I bet the other's not much better... :lol:
The sill is the easy bit, the hard part is fixing what you find behind there...

It's all this warm weather, it's making people energetic again. Next thing you will have the entire car in pieces!

Other sie is much the same but the Seam isn't to bad but will replace both A Panels I'd Sat.
I soaked in rust converter & sprayed some Rat Mat Black KillRust on it for the time being. I can see I'll be doing this for all the seams and edges :roll:
Thies some nice amounts of Bog to fill some area's also
Hate to be on Blue Slip Buz but we passed pink back in June :wink:

How long is a piece of string?

Depends on how bad it is, how much structural stuff, what kind of paint you want and what kind of finish you want from the paint (ie how much orange peel etc). Best bet would be to take it some where and get a quote. Remember: you get what you pay for.

Didnt think this was done back in 2007 well the the patches were put in and a bit of kill rust has been sprayed over the area's. All good still 8)

I'v moved to the back rear seams now and I think I'v been very lucky really

Yes the rear light is not in correctly after someone desided to hit the tail light and not leave a message and has broken the screw inside and no way its comming. have to get a new housing
Image

But this interests me. I dont think they came this way inwhich I expect anything from the Previouse Owner

Inside driverside look orginal thou

Passenger much the same
