Each year on Easter long weekend I do some rust repairs (firewall, a pillars etc).
This year I didn't, instead I went and bought another rusted out Morris minor.
Unfortunately I still have rust to repair on this cab......
Foolishly I had it in my mind that it's just the sill, no worries.
Nope, more 3 layer mitsi rust.

Looks like I have some hedgehogs to evict...

Have to cut some sections of the lower door frame out to get access.

Its pretty extensive. Also today I learned that the front cab mounts are 3 layered. Guess which one is rusted through...
There's some crusty repairs in there, so il tidy up what I can. Not too worried about how the floor looks inside but il make it solid again. To get access to the inner layer of the cab mount I have to either cut out the footwell floor, or unstitch the thicker underside plate. I don't have time to do either right now, so I'm going to leave a nice flange on my patch to tie into when I do. (I'm probably going to have to take the cab off as there's rust in one of the rear ones too.)
Otherwise there's several inner sill sections that need totally remaking.
Coffee break now, into the fab soon
