waow ! you have some great skills ! but i did not expect all that work on your lovely little clubby ! 

[sonikk4]

Been a little while but got on the with the doorstep, so old one off

and new one on

bit of final fettling to do but other than that its done.

 

The next fly in the ointment though is the A post, its not looking too happy

so more monies spent but while i was at it i ordered a new scuttle closeouts and a boot skin. most of its here

 

So the plan is to cut the other damage out on the flitch area then remove the A post stiffener, check to see if that is bad then repair the outer a post and nail it all back together again. But before all of that i might just weld in the quarter panel first. Its never ending. Oh and the flitch damage plus a newly found hole in the a post.

Are they those steps you had made?

Yes they are Ben, made from 1.2mm steel and really good. Just need to form the curved ends if required. I cut mine slightly at each end to get the curve.

Are they available or are these just for you?

 

They look good and i expect cheaper than heritage step/posts

I can vouch for how good those door steps from Neil are. I was lucky enough to get hold of some, and just about at the point of fitting one to the drivers side. . . Excellent update Neil .

I might be interested in one if it can be arranged?

 

I need to slice a bit of the flitch off to see what the A post section is like before i decide if i need the whole a post/step or just the step

[sonikk4]

Splashed a bit of paint around today and it looks good.

 

Prepped the quarter panel as well for plug welding
