got to the stage where need to cut the side panels and re-attach, when you take the quarter panel off and then cut the wing how do you then we attach the two 2gether?

[rangiemadharry]

cut the pannel shorter, but leave an inch and a half extra to bend around with mole grips. drill the hole back in and re bolt to the end ligh cluster pannel.

Harry mate what was the reason you bobtailed it in a stagered stair style, instead of straight down and weld back on? Is it because strength or is there another reason?

[rangiemadharry]

yeah, for strength and because it would have been harder to hold it all still otherwise to weld it up. there are lots of peices that get in the way too unless you do it steped.

this is a 4x4 offroader purely for fun it was most likely a vehicle at the end of its life as it it failed the MOT or somthing so its been cut to make it a toy
