marmite monster:
good work mick going to be doing all this to mine soon!

solihull-mick:
Hi all got a fair bit done over the weekend, few more pics of progress


Placed in floor panel, drill in to the panel and mark the cross mebers below



I find a 6mm or 3/16th drill works fine for plug welding



As you can see the marks are just where you need to clean up for the weld process



Had to swap a seat belt mount due to snapping a bolt off, well worth doing this before you fit the floor as there a real git to do after,



Ok all drill holes done and cleaned top and bottom of panel



New floor welded in place, make sure all the cross members are touching the floor with no gaps, this will give a good factory look from underneath,




Welds done, time to clean up the welds, seal and paint body colour,

Will post more when i get chance,

stuntman:
Nice easy to follow picture write up mate.

It's a shame admin don't collate all these useful posts and do stickies or tech archives.

Frankie-Boy:

Stuntman,

We do collate the articles when they are finished, they go into a thread called "Workshop Articles" funnily enough.

davidlandy:
looks like a great job - Frankie boy no doubt will be proud of that!

how have you gone about doing the rear arch in the door shut area?   I done one of those the other week and it came out good but was a little fiddly so would be interested in your views.
