Hey Blok
Thats enough rest . I'm coming up to Sawtell for the weekend. Hope to catch up.

Thanks Boys
I would not have been able to do this without the support and knowledge from the forum

Had some time this morning  so I thought that I would remove the old sill in preparation of the new sills that I have ordered from Craig Vayne.
Inner sills do not look too bad and I will have to do just a few repairs to the bottom of the A pillar and the rear of the inner sill.
I will remove the surface rust and then use KBS chassis coat to all the inner sill. With the outer sill off its easy to see what needs to be done and what the contours of the A pillar are.






 For a first timer i'm pretty happy  and confident that I can get it all done. Having the standard wagon is also very helpful for measurements.Keep you posted

Thanks Gary. Just what I was after!

What is it

[Does anyone these days do the repo sill with the ends on them or are thay all just straight cuts]

Time for an update.
Got to work on the subframe this week end. Have also done some work on the sills but will wait on that until I get some new outer sills . I cut out the old repairs and the new rust coming through but there was a heap of crud in the middle of the sill that I could see but couldn't get to ... so I think that the best option is to remove the  outer sills and replace so that I can clean it all up .

Got to this stage , cut out the rusted rear sill and front sill drivers side


Rear driver side

Front drivers side with an old attempt at bracing for the subframe.
I tried to look for Ken's article on sill replacement but could not find it


Formed up and spot welded in the inner wall that attaches to the inner  and outer sill.

 and from the inside.

As I think that I will now replace the whole sill I moved onto the subframe. I think that I need to get that all patched up so I can refit it and make sure that the repairs that I do to the A pillar will fit in properly
Started on the repair to the drivers side pillar



Top and bottom with the rust cut out






Formed up new sections  .



applied some weld through primer and welded them in. I then coated with red oxide paint
















Just have to patch up the raminaing sectino and that is complete.
 More soon Any information on the best place to buy sills greatly appreciated and also if someone could post the link or give me some details to the sill replacement article that Ken did that too would be appreciated.
It feels good to get that section done.

Nice Shed Jamie. Looks great. 
Your build has certainly been an inspiration to me and your pictures have helped a great deal, and given me motivation to keep going.
Made me get off my butt today and actually accomplish something.
Nick

Opps just re read original post. Sorry Furio.
Anyhow... anyone with an FC ( or FE) is OK by me.

Hi Brett
Keep the pictures coming. By the sounds of it your a pro
I thougth my rust was bad.
Nick

I saw that and was going to post but you beat me to it. 
What a crack up. Guess he didnt want to break the pins or they are superglued on

Hey Fink
that badge looks pretty good. Whats the process... id be keen!
Nick

Im going to get some good work out of that welder.

I knew that the front section of the sill and the bottom of the A pillar was a bit ugly. So I flipped the shell to have a good look.
Pretty ugly. The previous repairs were pretty slapstick to say the least. I could not work out what went where and i'm dreading having to fabricate it all up new again. I think that im going to replace some sill section too inner and outer.
Who do you line up the holes for the subframe and the panel. CAn you drill them in when it's all lined up / Any ideas

I think that im going to replace some sill section too inner and outer
 
Then I started to take a look at some of the previous repairs and it just got worse.
Whoever it was had just welded over rust holes with plates. Very Dodgy to say the least. It means that I can't trust any repair that has been done before and i'm going to have to check everything.

And.. Voila. look whats hidden underneath.



Floor pan just welded over hole.

Some thing is very dodgy on the other side too, check out those two bolts left of the support.



Got a bit more cutting to do

thanks ill give it a try

Is it possible to remove the springs from a front end that is off the car. 

Hi Jason
I ended up getting a Transmig 175. It was on special up here. I was going to get the lincoln 180 but the other was a great deal.
More photos to come.

Got the new welder. I like it
started on the fender

Had been brazed before and more rust.
Repair section.


New section in and ground off.


I'm very happy with the result.
