Well finally finished the welding, didn't bother posting pics as it was basically the same as the drivers side. The only exception was the rear deck under the rear window, this had a few holes that were letting water into the boot. Between bouts of welding i took bits from the engine bay and cleaned them up (hence the shiny rocker cover in the first pic). with the welding complete I decided to re-furb the engine bay next. I haven't had the car running yet so i thought that should be my next mission. I've kept it as original as possible in satin black and Schultz to the lower half. I manager to salvage the original chassis plate and neg earth sticker and re applied them once painted. I also found a guy on ebay who reproduces the old Duckhams service stickers so ive added one of those where the originals were (saved the original but it was to rough to re-apply). If anyone knows if their is a repro of the original bulkhead covering please let me know. it was foam covered in a really thin vinyl type material. I thought abut using a closed cell foam material but didn't think it would look right. i may leave it as is for now and use a adhesive backed foam tape to seal the heater...any thoughts??? Also who's the best for the technical spec sticker I've seen a few on the net but i would like a good quality one.
And finally if anyone has an 2000sc spares they want rid of please drop me a line, I'm not a millionaire so price needs to be reasonable, and you'll know the parts are going to a good home. im trying to re-use as many original parts as possible but the items below are beyond repair...
water pump
rear axle elbows
brake calipers or service parts (I've overhalled the master cylinders)
servo repair kit or good condition servo.
service items, points condenser air & oil filter, thermostat
sump gasket or any other gaskets, (just bought a NOS head gasket just in case )
rubber seals for the front wings
door seals
door window seals.
Thanks for reading and I'll update as the build continues.
