Love the flattened copper trick for big gaps. Great work mate.

[@TheRestoShed]

Yep - it’s a handy little trick to use.

[@traviswilliams1360]

Good work mate,great to see how it should be done right. That HZ will last another 50 years!

[@TheRestoShed]

It’ll be well taken care of for the next 40-50 years that’s for sure.

[@andrewgillbee1934]

Great repair and video mate. Can I ask did you do a apprenticeship as a body guy or are you self taught? Or was there someone who help you learn. Keep up the great videos mate.

[@TheRestoShed]

Self taught mostly, never done a trade but been in the industry in some shape or form for just under 10 years.

[@SvenBischoff-ng9yw]

Really great Video mate! Just wondering how many hours roughly that whole job took?

[@TheRestoShed]

Hi mate - I didn’t keep a tab on the hours of this series of repairs. But I would guesstimate around 35-40hrs to repair the dogleg/sill panel adjacent, B pillar lower section/sill panel top and replace outer sill panel + removal, trial fit and refit of the doors.

[@Jimmyy32]

What thickness steel were you using?

[@TheRestoShed]

1.6mm in the sill, 1mm in the section of b pillar I made. All as per factory.

[@Jimmyy32]

@@TheRestoShed perfect I just picked up some of both, looks great mate
