excellent work!

 

Wow, you have no problem jumping to the task !
What's the under carriage like, eg. spring pockets, pan hard rod bracket etc.
With that sort of rust on the front fender, I would be surprised if there wasn't some sort of rot some where else.

 

hi alot of that work was done a few years ago but the ££££`s ran out
so we just did a quick fix on the wings (fenders) but they have gone to far
to save now so out with the grinder will post more pics later

 

Great job ,one of my fave cars and Daimlers are rarer I guess

 

hi all
had the grinder out again here`s a few more pics

is it better to do a butt weld or a joggle join ?
as this is my next step

the panel cost a few bob (thats £££££`S) but it fits well
