Welding some more

Today its a Holiday So I did not work on the car.
Yesterday I did but was to tired to get everything on the blog.
So Here it is.
I first put the car from the blasting cabin to the garage.

I first started at the junction of the rear window trunk and quarter panel.

First the spot welds were drilled. And then a large section was cut out.

 I then had to make a new part to weld in place. Which was a bit difficult because the piece has a character line on th top which was decreasing from high to almost zero. But I got it done. In the picture below you can see the old and new piece side by side. 

 After welding and some grinding the piece is in place. All it needs now is some primer.

 Next the front rocker panel is tackled.

 The parts are cut out and rust removed and everything cleaned.

 After making some pieces of metal and welding them in place it looks much better and has its former rigidly back.

 After some grinding...

 And some primer its almost impossible so see the repair.

 Then the next item. The battery box area.
While blasting the car I noticed that there was a lot of bondo at the place where the the battery is mounted.
So today we make a little inspection.
On the bottom side of that part we notice there has been some previous repair.

 This picture below gives us a look of the part where the bondo sits.

Well after some chiseling and hammering we got to the bottom of its there was on some locations almost 1 cm of bondo. The repair that was made previously existed of 3 layers of plate on top of each other with a lot of rust in between.

 So I made a big hole and cut the bad parts away.

 After bending cutting and grinding  I had one piece of metal that filled the hole exactly. So after welding and grinding and some primer everything looks like new even the reinforcement bracket at the under side to which the battery box is mounted.

 A picture from the inside.

So that was one side of the car.
The other side of the car has still to be done.
