I got the other side lower repair panel all sorted today

Also my new door tipped up so I gave that a quick trial fit, seems fairly good but it does need a little adjustment on the hinges.

I don't think mini spares used enough tape!

I've been doing some finishing off underneath, I got the rear wheel arches spot welded and the rear valance and closing plates on

Then I made up some closing panels for the front section of the wheel arches

And added a bit of primer

I also tidied up the end of the sill where it meets the heel board



I reused the original front shocker mount bolting plates and got these welded into position

And finished off the welding on the front panel to inner wings

So here is how it's looking at the moment

Next thing is to get this cleaned up and fitted

Thanks for all the comments, I'm pleased with how it's turning out :)

I still have the lower part of the dash to weld in and some repairs to do above the rear doors along the gutter, also I need to make up some plates where the rear seat legs sit on the floor.
I'm going to leave out the spare wheel bracket and battery support because I think I am going to run the battery cable along the inside in the big groove in the floor with it being an mpi floor.
