Removed the (now) surplus rear body mount panel.
Surplus as in I no longer want the triple-skinned rust trap on the car. Now I do realise I have removed a body mounting but there's less body to mount on a Baja and I can always put it back later if I need to.
Might tie the rear bodywork into the roll cage when I fit one, might not.....who can tell?
Rusty metal that would otherwise be inaccessible for repair
Cut off the surplus skin and stitched the inner arch to the boot floor
Found a small area of bad pitting that would rot out if left so I cut it out, as you do!
Nice work, damn I'm getting good at this shit
Soon dressed back neatly, almost like it grew there
A lick of cold galv spray and we're good
Made a small repair panel for the wing mounting area
Dressed back the repair
Finally I made a panel for the complex shape that joins the boot floor to the inner wing area.
Yes I know this is the other side but it's a better picture. I did do both sides, honest.
There's a bit of dressing back work to be done but that's for another day
Sprayed outside all up and called it a day
You can just see Tom's bug up in the air while he cleans and paints the underside for winter protection
