Got the rear corners finished off and made up some rear door hinge support brackets. The door feel a lot sturdier now and I can get them lined up a bit better.

I took the van off the jig so that I could finish off a few jobs on the underside, got the lower inner wings seam welded to the floor, seam welded the load floor and fitted the load floor under bracing.

I've got the studs welded onto the underside for fastening up the brake line, battery cable and fuel lines. I did a test run on an old door skin first and snapped it off, this left a hole in the panel which prove I'm getting full penetration.
Then I got started on the car
I also got the center seat belt anchor and slinging hooks on

Not a big update but a few little bits, now there's lots of holes in the bulkhead I don't need to I started to get them all welded up
Got the body number welded onto the inner wing
A few more bits arrived too, I've gone for a non genuine front panel because it going to get butchered fitting the origional grill
Starting to look good now :)
Hopefully this will fit in here somthing like this
