Onwards part 3 of 3.
Part 1 here shows the tear down and external panels needed to be cut into to access the sill section, I had a few more discoveries on slight differences to later cars but all are easy to work around.
Part 2 we have the not so fun task of removing the last of the sill and clean up, remember I said not to remove too much material when stripping back, now is where it pays dividends :-)
Do not expect the panel to fit perfectly, they never were that good even from the factory ! you could spend forever making something better than it was.
Part 3 is here and summarises the extra hour it took me to fettle, trim and generally beat into submission the sill sits well, came out very well in the end. The extra work is far better being expended now.
While waiting for the coatings to flash off I took back the paint where the lower half wing will attach and got a nasty surprise, not what I wanted, actually pitted ! well something else to fix, add it to the list !
