Re: '63 11 window
Cheers guys, much appreciated. Still chipping away...
Small repair on the left side D pillar...
Outriggers and inner sill welded in on the left side...
Getting the lower C pillar clamped and tacked...
Trial fitting the rear cargo door and side panel to see how everything lines up...
Getting the rear corner sorted with the side panel clamped in place. Painted in behind the rear corner before it was welded in place and tail light hole is cut...

Re: '63 11 window
Some work on the passenger side B pillar. The Klassic Fab inner pillar didn't have this little pressing. My OCD kicked in so I transferred if from the OG panel onto the new one...
Also the front section of the new B pillar didn't have the door striker adjustment ribs. So I measured off the old one and transferred it to the KF one...
The window frame rot on the passenger side cut out and repaired...

Engine lid stripped and then a quick sandblast in the areas which were showing signs of rust. All cut out and repaired...

Re: '63 11 window
Engine lid hanger welded in place. The top edge was rusty so made up two new sections and got them welded in and dressed up.
Hope everyone has a good Christmas and gets a break. Looking forward to getting this build thread up to date and getting cracking on the bus again.
