Radius arm strip down - Bye Bye Rear Subframe!
Stripped down the rear subframe and radius arms, which I will be rebuilding sometime this week when the parts arrive. It's bye bye to the old rear subframe - in exchange for the rear beam.

Arse Rot
I thought I'd better make it an amusing title, just so it lightens the mood a bit on the situation.... blind monkeys have again been attacking the car, this time welding new stuff over rusted old stuff - leaving the valance corner full of rust and grim.
I think I must have a sign on my forehead saying 'This person is a mug and will do anything'.
Oh well, we will persist....!

O/S Shock Mount - Complete
So, like I said - it was nice and simple - all went smoothly.
Welded the vent hole on the N/S up - and put in the scuttle closing panel.
Did a bit of tidying on the N/S shock mount - looks much nicer.
To do:
O/S Scuttle closing
O/S Vent Sealing
Rear Valance
Various Tidying

N/S Shock Mount - Complete
N/S Shock mounting panel made up, and welded in - was a bit of a pig to do, but it was better than buying a whole new wing just to use a section of it.
As you can see the O/S isn't as bad and won't take very long at all to complete.
