ZX Volcane Sold - getting fixed up

[Stickyfinger]

As of this afternoon

[CitroJim]

it really is looking like a shed at the moment

Taken on the appearance of a Ford Ka has it?

[Stickyfinger]

To be fair to it both areas are quite small with good metal close to the holes. There was a build up of mud under the strut top but I have not got a clue why the small part of the outrigger rotted.

[RichardW]

They always go there... had both of ours welded in the front wings, and rot in the floor there was amongst the reasons it failed its final MOT ...

[Stickyfinger]

Only ittle little bitty bits at the moment.....the other side and rear is solid.

[Stickyfinger]

Strut out and work started

[wurlycorner]

Not wasting any time there!

[Stickyfinger]

Nice and neat, not much to do really and surprisingly localised.

[Stickyfinger]

Ready for the repair sections to be made up.

The outer skin is all that needs to be replaced on the rail and a simple bent section to fill the larger box area.

Now I remember why I should only buy rest free cars, most of this landed on my face !

[lexi]

Get the sparkle stick out Al. A little tickle keeps your hand in......

[Stickyfinger]

Now watch me set fire to it

[van ordinaire]

Don't you need carpet in the immediate vicinity for that?

Seriouslly, nothing but respect (maybe tinged slightly green) for those who can take on this kind of job.

[CitroJim]

Good work Alasdair That's coming along a perfect treat. I have a Ka that could do with similar

[wurlycorner]

Great work.
Just a thought, but... Surely this car should merit it's own profile thread, rather than adding to the for sale thread?

[Stickyfinger]

Maybe the Mods can alter the heading to : ZX Volcane Sold & bought, getting it fixed up
