coming on strong...like the door refurb...is there no welding on the skin...did you use any bonding agent..or is it just a crush fit....grat skills ...cheers mark
Thanks
Firstly the door skin had holes drilled approx every 3 inches along its edge, so that it could be plug welded, then primed and painted inside.
I
I've highlighted the holes in this picture.
Then the door skin was offered up to the door shell and only the top corner tacked, this allows the skin position to adjusted to ensure the best fit. It was then crush fitted and finally welded using the holes already drilled, finally after paint I'll use some seam sealer to prevent any moisture ingress.
Fairly time consuming but the fit is fantastic.
Looking good mate
Great job, will be looking forward to seeing her back so you can rebuild her
Wow, what an amazing build! Your fab skills are spot on mate, look forward to following the build of this one
Sourced a new impeller from IK engineering, for the water pump, so its turns in the opposite direction.
Because the waterpump will turn in opposite direction, normally it uses a smooth fan belt pulley - but as its using the opposite side of the fan belt I need to use a ribbed pulley.
Ordered from a lad on this forum.
