Thanks Jared for the kind words.
Today we started with the LH floor panel and firewall area. Problem areas high lighted.
After this we turned out attention to the steering rack mounting plate and straightened the mountings there.
Then the RH floor got the final fixing on the fire wall.
On the outer sill some rust was found right at the very front end.
When it was cut open on the inside as the new RH floor pan has already been sourced.... we found???!@@#!@$#@%@#%
The support there has completely rusted away and the drain hole was bent shut.
Out with the old rusted floorpan and the whole area got rust treated naturally and the sills too.
A good long hard look revealed that the LH floor pan should also rather just be replaced as pin holes have created havoc.
That is the next big job.

Own some minis, break them, fix them, improve them, test them to the limit....
