Front End and Wings

Postby PeterDavisX300 » Sat May 26, 2018 10:34 am

I have removed the front wings, for welding and repair to get rid of all rust. I have also removed the bottom radiator and condenser mounting bracket and replaced with a new one. All the bushes for the rad's were well shot, and the bracket was rusted through. Not much other rust, I've shown a couple of pics with circled in red the worse bits, but all cleaned-up now with fresh waxoyl and rust-treated. I'm able to clean-up and paint the top rad's mounting, again with new bushes. Wings back on soon when I've finished welding the new bits in, (using the sides of an old cooker because the metal is galvanised) then a paint and on to the rear suspension replacement :-)
