Got coffee and chilli sauce, that's important to me.

So I've done a fair bit of work on the accelerator pedal, but can't find photos now, so out of sequence slightly..
Car is now back on spit and stripped to attack bodywork and make a super solid shell.


Started cutting out all corrosion. Shell seems really good, not too much to do. Well, an enjoyable amount rather than laborious. All of the corrosion is symmetrical too, the same thing on each side!
I probably could have left this sill as it was just really squashed by the jack, but there was one corroded part so it all came out


Both corners of the rear arches need repair. Main arches are good tho!

Both rear jacking points had holes so will be rebuilding some custom jacking points


Another rusty corner

There was a small hole by the jacking point so I cut a square out, as I was sure it was all corroded behind. Not the case, was perfect behind, still had the wax in the cavity! Facepalm. Ah well at least I know now..

While the car is on the spit I cleaned up some under dash brackets, and made a new column support bracket, as the old one was in the way of the pedal box. The metal there is to brace..


The holes are for plug welding.

I also welded in some 3mm spreader plates to the inner wings, for the pedal box/bulkhead brace bar to mount to.
