You got that right lol. My xerus had a cart load of filler on it when it had its sill repaired, or should I say bodged lol. I see if I can find the thread.

I was the same with my Naples valver lol, thought new sills and a few other patches would do it, turned out it had a full quarter at some point which wasn't done very well, the floor near enough fell out once the sill was off! And I'm not sure on the better options mate, just read somewhere on...

Haha true, yeah I emailed them about the welder and they answered all my questions etc. Can't wait to get all the rot out of mine, although to my surprise it's actually pretty solid bar the usual arches and sills and the rest is down to cap previous repairs. Which hubs you putting on mate? I was...

Nice to see someone else taking pride in a valver! I've got 2 to do and all I keep getting is why don't you get rid. That's some brilliant welding work there btw, Better than most "reputable body shops" Off topic but is the welder any good? I was looking at getting one of these but never really...

hey bauderline. hows the williams coming along? havent been able to find the tread for it :gutted: lol

due a bit of an update i think! i now have a mig welder so the good stuff can start soon! its an old school murex tradesmig 160 made in 1986, bought it not working and fixed it, its now working and welding beautifully. me and my girlfriend are relocating soon and i will be renting a garage/unit...

Not updated in a while as I've not really been home and I've been putting off the project till I get a welder etc... Anyhow I was getting frustrated with looking at it just sat there so found myself something to do :-) All I've really done is some bondo work. Filled in the holes that held the...

Added this today, apparently they don't fit mk1s 172 pedals. Will also be adding the brake and clutch pedal. Feels nicer and looks better tbh :)

Not much to update on the clio really as been helping a mate with his civic project :-) All I've really don't is ordered this to go with the phase 1 goodies But as you can probably tell it's smaller than it should be which confused me as it's got a genuine Renault part number on it so I'm...

Got new ones already bud. If you read back a few pages you'll see them :)

Update time but it's only brief... Have now laid a deposit on a new shell for beloved TOA. Sadly they're the only photos I've got but I'll upload more when it's in my garage :)

She's coming along well mate but it's slowed down a bit till I can buy a welder etc. Make sure you have it done right buddy, this one was a right mess :(

Photo of the brake disc backing plate in primer Better photo of the carriers Got the final bit of short shifter kit ready to be fitted when I get a 172 box, going to fit lsd too B-) I'm also toying with the idea of painting this already gave it 2 wet coats, but now I'm thinking what would...

I'm starting to save up for my tools now but hopefully shouldn't be too long before I can start welding new metal in :) 432 looks lovely when fairly fresh pained or even just looked after and waxed etc. Once I've got all the underseal off I'm pretty sure there's gonna be f*ck loads of rust as...

Small update. Rear beam is now fully fitted. Need to bleed the brakes and then it can be moved into the garage to start tackling the other stuff to be done. Crappie update but it's part of this cars story so thought I'd share :)
