Cool enough to stand to be in overalls today



This is rusty



It's got crappy weld new panels in over rust repairs

So I cut it out



Unstitched all the welds and cut out the spotwelds. Was just going to cut out the corner edge and replace that, but realised I didn't really want to spend the time to stitch a long strip into a big flat panel. Also the panel being a wheelwell in a wellside is full of small dings. Also it's pretty thin steel. Decided it would be best to make a new one out of 2mm sheet. Pretty quick, hardest part was getting enough leverage on my bender as I'm yet to make a proper handle.



Anyway

New one*





Sits in place without any help which is usually a good sign.

Now to do everything else.
