(its what everybody calls him :D)
 
yu called?

No you cant pop rivet them in - or more precisely the OS one is within 8 inches (is it 8?) of the brake servo and is therefore considered structural by MOT peeps.
yu mite get away with the NS one, but if yu gorra weld one, you might as well do the job proper and weld both.
You can get complete Inner wing sections (now :hurt:) from YRM for £60 notes each.

Damn that was quick mad hat man ! thanks ,was just gonna pm ya when i had made a cuppa ! thanks again . will have to see if my brother still got his mig and will start practising !!!
 
be forewarned - if the inner wings are shot, then it appears quite likely that the footwells wont be far behind.
Have yu taken the carpets up and checked?
