Started to repair the second window today. This one is much more corroded than the first, though paradoxically it may be quicker and easier to repair as so much more new material will be needed. Probably only the corners will survive in the outer frame, the inner, though rusty, looks savable.

Finished removing the rain deflector from above the nearside windows. Removed the second window, this will require some more complex fabrication than the first but looks repairable.
Reconstruction is becoming clearer now – waist rail panels first, then windows and finally lower panels when the frame has been repaired.

Finished painting the repaired rear O/S window with primer. The crack repair treatment has arrived so I’ll be having a look at repairing the corner crack soon. The photo sequence below shows the repair at various stages and completion with new metal welded in and painted.
