Well i will save a comment to thhat till maybe tomoz
today had the hardest job to do , . decide where to make the cut toi gain access and at the same time make life easy but before coming to that part i have removed the main part of the nsr wing as there was enough tell tale rust for me to be fairly sure that i would not be able to do much with it

even vans that appear to be so called 'rust free' have rust in the seams, its starts at manufacture and some it comes out early .other not yet but they all have it

which is why you cannot ever give a guarantee with this sort of thing,only give it your best shot .
so ive decided where to cut and open it like a suicide door

now we can have a proper poke about, not much to poke though
last bit of rubbish out

chassis top cleaned up and dosed with weldthrough,feel happier now stuff is starting to go back in

so i need a new base, easy,make one, ran out of thicker sheet so had to nip out at 5 and cut some

spent half an hour and now a trial fitting, i have deliberately cut the panal at an angle as this is easier to adjust ten a 90', also i have kept the majority of the original as its perfect so will let the new part in to continue the piece 'as built'

and from the other side
![Image](http://i42.photobucket.com/albums/e308/mentalmick/sunnivagon/DSCF3056.jpg)
i will drill the part over the chassis leg and puddle weld through

final fit in ,its ready to weld in the morning

and the gaps here will be just right to fill with weld so should be easy to sand over and not look like its done

this is the arch after removal of the old lip

will no dopubt cut it off and add a new bit as its too bad to blast in my opinion
this shows the rear wing as its sandwiched between the C post and middle panal, theyre fun to extract as will become evident

got a nice genuine panal or two arriving so gonna be a very happy and enjoyable few days coming up
