(1/3) > >>

Niel:
Hi, well I've discovered the side frames need sorting, angled bit at the back/bottom member is more holey than rightious, does anyone make sections or is it be creative time?

Oh and passenger footwell too!

Have you tried this bloke?

I just bought some door frame repair stuff from him.  I havent done it yet though!

L90OOK:
Do you mean the body cappings, bit below rear sliding windows & tub?  ...or the bits where the rear lights are?
Either way both are available galvanized from stockists.  I did have to wait six months for one side of the cappings...but worth it.
You may be able to get good secondhans ones from breakers & get them galvanized.

Neither, the side frame is the bit the rear side doors hang on (B + C posts) and forms the inner sill. Its the bit at the back of the sill going up at 45 degree's from it thats rusted, been patched on the top side though rust through again and rusted out completely on the inner face and under side, the outer face under the alloy triangle is non-existant too....

Ah that one, sorry I miss understood! ...classic MOT failure point as within 30cm of the rear seat belt mounting!

THESE are what you want.

Paddocks sell them singularly too.  8)
