Well this weekend I wanted to get my front end done. So started by removing the front panel to allow for a standard one. And then re-adjust everything to fit again. And by Sunday evening she was all on and welded ! Just need to make a few slight adjustments to the bonnet.
Quick mock up


Wing fitted good but opened up at the end



Fitted much better after I had fiddled around for a little while.needs a little filler work

Also got this welded on before I forgot.

Once I was happy with everything fitted perfect it came time to weld her up..
Bit of primer on before the wings went on for the final time

Finally the welding !!

Used my spot welder for this so all look factory !!


Other side all welded

One front end all welded up !!

Perfect bonnet gaps of I so say so my self hah

Will hopefully spend some time later on the bonnet repairing and getting that perfect. Then onto the door frame repairs

Hi Dan,
do you weld between the wing and scuttle? If so, always wondered how people do when the replacements inner wing assy are available with the scuttle closure already fitted.
