Thanks guys I always thought they were welded in. The other side was badly welded in so will get that off and screw it in like it should be

Is there anything else in the welding pictures that look out of place just saving trouble later on

Thanks
Jordan

Just cover it in chrome tape

So this weekend I got the other side off. So much easier than the passenger side all bolts came off without problems :lol:[frame] http://mmoc.org.uk/mbimage.php?src=1469561864_21739 [/frame] So once it was off again there was no scary sights nothing I wasn't really expecting. All the rot in the pict...

Well the plan is ill be obviously treating with 5 star then sikkens pine then if over time I decide it's not for me or when I replace all the wood for new then I may do osmo

Heya Mike Thanks for the advice would it suprise you the other side is 95% perfect just all needs stripping and small square of wood (2 cm x 2cm) replacing at the bottom of the arch at the rear where a screw has split the wood in the past. My plan is to do it all properly but to the best my budget c...

So after work I thought I'd get that awful passenger side off. Well I'm both horrified by what some people pass as acceptable and also happy with how solid it is. Although it does need some welding in areas and some welds redoing. So after ripping the waist rail off i thought I would start at the fr...

I would suggest replacing all the wood. It sounds like you plan to replace everything except the driver's side anyway. That way you will not have to worry about having to try and match. I suspect once you get all the drivers side sanded back to good wood, you may find dark or soft patches anyway. I...

Update time So today got alot done :) Interior and panels, windows, headlining, guttering, roof removed and inspected wood, and lots more. Notice where the hinge is and should be.....[frame] http://mmoc.org.uk/mbimage.php?src=1468785556_21739 [/frame] The waist rail.... If you could call it that. Lo...

And so the fun begins!!!! All wood will be coming off and replacing complete passenger side, rear doors and rear cross member that runs under the doors. Panels will be resprayed and all seals replaced. All wood will also be stripped and treated.[frame] http://mmoc.org.uk/mbimage.php?src=1468666640_2...

Hey guys, so Onas new front grill and housing is all painted and assembled. Sadly although I'm not 100% happy with the paint finish on the housing and the brand new chrome has been a massive headache to fit but I'm happy with the overall product :D doesn't look out of place due to not being perfect ...
