Pillar repair post advice please!!

Thanks for all the replys fellas. I'm pretty handy with a mig so not worried about that at all. I think I'll shop around and see if I can find any panels that are in the same repair vain as the bulkhead tops. Really, I'm just looking at getting it through the dreaded mot, so pretty ain't an issue!! Once I've found / fabricated some I'll show you all how I got on.
Check back tomorrow for a masterclass in door repair!!

Obviously going to start a new thread for that one....

Well good luck Dan keep us posted nice pics pls....

Before and after (okay, so it's a Series but you get the idea)

I've got a few pics of my bulkhead repair incl pillar legs on both sides:

Gotta get me one of them spot-weld drill bits!

So, looks like it's going to be another cut, chop rebuild then! Thanks guys. I'll let you all know how I get on.

Mine is a sykes pickavant one. The trick is to:

• centre punch
• Keep the replacable centres sharpened
• Use lots of cutting oil

Miss out any of the above & thery're a pain in the *

Cheers chap - I've still got to finish the Series bulkhead so there's gonna be more cutting/drilling/grinding/welding in the not too distant future.

Nope...have now tho. I got my footwell from them and was impressed. But if i remember correctly, they didn't do door pillars at that time as they were just starting out. Would defo use them again.
