Way to go mte. PArticularly not having done anything like this before. Did youhave to clean up any rust / cracks on the chassis?

[Wa113]

Thanks guys.

There was a crack on the front left at the bracket where the spring joins the chassis which eeded welding, but besides that it was i pretty good condition.

I took most of it bac to bare metal anyway and then sprayed it.

Been on holidays, but tonight I finally have some spare time so I'll head over and do a little on it. I'm enjoying that it's at a stage where it feels like good progress is being made.
