Xmas is a comin

 Not an awful lot to share as unfortunately the good lady wife has had a knee replacement so progress has slowed, so here are a few picks to finish the year off.

Ive got one of these to reproduce for the heat exchanger, this part connects to the rear of the heat duct that runs down the centre of the chassis and from this a pipe goes over the axle pivot tube.

Bought a couple of new toys or so  for the new year, bead roller to put ribs and steps in panels rather than forming them by hand, hopefully will speed things up, a replacement shrinker/stretcher that will allow me to replace my worn one and a set of rolls so I can finally build a wheeling machine and finally accumulated enough info to make a pullmax style power hammer, got to be good.

Many thanks for those who have viewed the blog and Ill be inviting comments from anyone viewing so hopefully I can learn more as I go along, have a good Xmas

Plenty Of Welding Done, Camper Has Gone Up In The World

 Mainly welding has taken place as well as fitting the jacking points

 Nice clear shot

 silla and inner sills all welded

 Lower part of the rear tubs replaced

 Still have the heater duct to fit and weld as well as the loom tube

And as per title, camper has gone up in the world

After alot of cutting and grinding progress is taking place

 Wheel arch fitted and upper floor repaired.

 Floor repair panel fitted and fully welded

 Another shot of the chassis, the other side has now been done to match

 Sill now tacked in to place as well as the rear sill repair panel

 Floor runners all in place

 B post repair, more welding to do

 Better view of the floor rails etc

 Removed all the paint and filler over the wheel arch repair, old repair but if you look closely you can see it is sloping forward by 1 inch.

 I didn't like the way it looked so removed it and then cut the remainder of the old arch away.

New sill and the cut down repair panel wheel arch refitted

Looks better, runs in line with the louvres
