The Van by Tom Sanderson

I got the hole cut in the bulkhead today, I wasn't sure if I was going to do it or not but the main reason was so I can put it on the spit to paint the shell. Anyway I had to cut out the old price for a template first.



This is what I had to start with



And this is what I wanted



So I started cutting



And folded a lip onto the edge of the hole

A bit of primer and a couple of dash securing holes, jobs sorted.

I got the rear inner valance in last night, all spot welded but there's just a couple of bits I need to finish off with the mig

And I cleaned out the holes in the floor where the extension piece overlapped it

I had a couple of hours today so I got the lower dash rail all cleaned up and welded to the new shelf section. I can get this welded into the shell now.
