Back is now back in order so was aloud back in garage which isn't difficult when your building buggy for your wife. Decided to weld the back of the pan on inside edge and flash it off a little bit then plan to create a nice smooth radius with some kind of panel sealant not really sure yet,
Anyone any ideas as to what I can use ?

Sikaflex is what you want to run round that pan surely Matt? I've only joined because of you!

Hi Scott thanks for that, got no doors mate and destroyed the seats when I ripped them off The chassis.

Managed a few hours in the garage tonight, decided to reinforce the pans with 30x30x3 box, so the body will pull onto the pan and not the other way round . Proper stiff how it should be

Struggling to get time on wife's buggy at the moment, anyway borrowed a mates mag drill and banged the holes in to box section to get a socket in for bolting pan to body.

New front beam turned up today with long travel ball joints and Avis type adjusters so decided to start fitting them tonight . It's hard earnt and easy spent
