Well the strip down continues and to be fair its not too bad for a 23yr old, seat box will need new tool box and side panels but the rest of the panels are good.

One first inspection I thought the sills were ok but found rot at the bottom of the mid door post so they'll need replacing more £££££

Not bad that at all Thumbs Up looks like a garage has replaced the chassis hence the rusty parts.
Good stuff on getting a stack of parts.
One thing though is if a job is going really well and your getting bored of it, stop. Move onto something else, that way you will return to it on a mental high. Same thing if things are going well and then they start to go off, stop and pack up. Come back at it again the next day.

Yes Mash I agree, plan is to keep the cappings, rock sliders and rear corner cappings in the galvanise finish, undecided about the bulkhead yet .

Made some good progress over the Christmas break, working outside is always more pleasant when the weather is dry and mild.

Got the axle and suspension parts all stripped down and painted, 2 coats of Corroless chassis in one, its a good product and on first impression its a far superior product to the POR15 which I used on the last build. Time will tell tho.

Also decided on installing super pro bushes all round , just waiting on axle parts now springs shox etc..

The bad news is I found more rot, front of the rear tub, battery box, so another order gone into the good people at YRM have most of it cut out now and prepped for the new parts.

And the sills and Door posts are rotten too, looked Ok on first inspection but once I went poking with the screwdriver.....thats a big expense I hadn't counted on and will probable look out for a full set of galvanised ones.

Bit of an update, seat box rebuilt with new YRM battery box, under seat tool box and new end sections. purchased an air riveter which made light work of the job and the fit of the YRM parts was first class.

Also installed the new tub section and under tub support rail, just the new floor sections to make up now and then be ready for etch primer and paint.

Biggest stumbling block for me now is the B-posts and sills, so if anyone knows of a good set about please let me know.
