After the blasting of the chassis revealed the extent of the work that needs to be done, we have started getting stuck into the chassis repairs to the rear end and also the crack in the spring hanger.  The first step before starting to weld is to grind out a channel for the weld to penetrate into, and in the case of the crack we will also be terminating each end with a drill hole to prevent any possibility of spreading in the future.

The body panels came back from SEQ Onsite Services after blasting and the epoxy coat, the only real work that needs to be done aparts from a few pitted areas is a corner on one of the rear door window frames that has had a previous bodge it and scarper job done on it.

A different story is the rear upper panels, the customer dropped these off for us late last week and we were surprised to see the extent of the damage and cancer to the bottom corners.  It is nothing that can't be fixed but it will certainly take some time to shape the replacement parts and get it all welded and skirfed ready for the the final stages, but we might get luck in the MrLandcruiser yard.

Stay tuned guys as there is heaps more work/content to come come on this build, if you are into your classic 4WD's make sure you subscribe and hit that notify bell so you don't miss out.
