Yeah having some to role or bend stuff would be awesome. I tell you if I won the lottery my work shop would be like a flippin warehouse!! What were the edges like around the window? I haven't removed mine yet but was worried it would be to rotten to affix metal to. Not that yours being ok...

Cool I will post plenty of pics.... I was thinking out side but I'll see how it looks once I have the quarter panels back on. I'm not really worried about security, it is much quicker breaking a window than trying to pry metal off.... :)

Yeah I have a feeling it would get off topic VERY quickly... :5bcheers2:...

I'm cracking on as fast as time and the budget committee allow but I hope to have it on the road before a year is up ... :eek: but tinkering and bits will take longer I feel... just want it water tight.. ish... for the winter... good luck finding another project... twice_nightly might have...

Basically I've got 1mm mild steel sheet, going to use the window as a template with a some excess, then seam seal it, drill and rivet it round. I like rivets they remind me of the old school ww2 fighters and old cars so they might become a bit of a theme on my disco. Thinking about doing the...

Think about it this way.... You now have a great opportunity to learn new skills, get to know your Landy and best of all spend loads of time and money doing it up :D MOT stations don't tend to be vindictive they just have to tick the boxes. Get some pics up on here and look around at some...

Oh and also the seal is evil stuff... It stains and sticks to EVERYTHING!! It will come off in lumps when cold and sticks to itself so although its time consuming you can pick it off once the panel is removed....

Window out, mine just pushed out. As for the panel pretty much covered above, however make sure you get all the bolts in the pillar. There are four i missed the bottom one, got in a rage, ripped it right out... :violent:.... they can be viewed from the inside down the pillar. Once the window...

Yeah they have gone in the same places mine had or was... Just really check your seat belt mounts if you have rear seats, mine were very bad. You should be able to patch in there ok though.... As for filler I haven't had a lot but just found some in the rear drivers side door arch... so I'm...

So here we are another weekend looking at rust and bits falling off... Well actually not as I'm now close to putting everything back on. The axle has just been sprayed today in black but I did it with the cold galv and red oxide first... Notice the novel use of rear seats...

Cheers man..... :5bcheers2: I used to have a V8 and I kind of wish this was but for the money I can't complain... :D I have to be honest, I've put some polls up here and asked for advice a lot, but in the end its your money and your car so you do whatever you fancy mate. Um... in regards...

Thanks mate... :D Will do and I've got some holiday coming up so intend to get the rear half finished then... :D

Thanks mate.... Plenty more to come :D its not been quite the basic resto that I planned to do. I'm putting more new parts on than I wanted to originally, however I has usually been because of time restraints or the fact the parts are to far gone to bother with. Check back over the next couple...

Welcome... back...ish... Discos forever!!! :D........ till I get an RRC....:eek:

Will do :D cheers mate..... (minutes later) just tried at work but they block pictures so will have to look at home...

Cheers mate... Enjoying every bit just wish I had more time as I want to green lane again :(.... Getting there though :D pickup sounds cool...

Mate they are monster!! Proper jazzed up with all jazzy bits on.... very nice. My body mounts are ok so im not intending cutting out the inner sill. Just cold galving the box and sliding it to the top between the inner sill and the pillars. Thanks for the link though always inspiring. ;)

ooo I will have a look cheers mate :5bcheers2:

Cool I will def have a look local see what they can do, the 70 - 80 quid was for 3 m so yours was half the price. When you used 140 does it drop it down considerably from the inner sills? Also did you weld through from behind on the inner sill? I was just going to weld from the top and leave a...

As James said all steel, so once cleaned up welded fine. I also welded two new plates where the springs attach and patched up the shock mount. My welding isn't great thats why i didn't want to weld a whole new pan on. I did wonder about tapping bolt holes and putting a new one on with a...
