Good effort man. I meant to ask where the sills came from? Were they a good fit?

Yo sorry for the late reply! I’m sure I got them off eBay of all places I’ll have to go find out. And yeah they were spot on. Ok they aren’t like original 2 door sills as they are one piece but I used the spot point half way down to tie them in too. I tried to leave as much original metal there on the rear quarter panel so it’s not noticeable

The latest of the not so greatest. Frustratingly slow progress these days with house move and lots of recent work offshore. With spanner rash videos as inspiration, now looking to rebuild the sill (easy bit) then fix the outer arch lip and the inner arch (totally dead). The joys!

For the avoidance of doubt, i am not reinstating the jacking points as they're a waste of time in my eyes. I was going to go for sill stands anyway or just jack on the chassis rails as usual. The new sills thankfully don't have holes cut for jacking points so totally sealed
