I honestly didn't think that this side was as bad as the right hand side of the Midget...
I was wrong...again!
So that all needed to be cut out and replaced.
Another alignment check...
It is not easy to get the inner section exactly in the right place because you can't easily tell where is should be with the outer skin covering it up. So you have to keep measuring and checking the gaps.
And then in the end you have to bite the bullet!
It is really fiddly welding this in place. Even harder to grind the welds flat. But once in place the outer skin can only really fit one way, although that didn't stop me from checking the gaps about 30 times.
You have to be careful though to make sure the outer skin of the a-post sits flush with the front wing as well as making sure the door gaps are ok.
Fortunately everything came together nicely...
I'm definitely happy with that. Think I can relax now. What's next? Oh the b-post repair...more gap alignment checks!!!
