classic car welding

Jaguar E-Type welding work

Scott’s attention is now on the nearside floor pan of our 1972 Jaguar E-Type V12. He is welding and repairing areas in need of attention.

Nissan Patrol Sill Repairs

Our adventurous modern classic, the Nissan Patrol is currently sat in the fabrication bay with Pricey continuing his work restoring the sills and doors. The front sills have been removed and repaired with filler, the front wing is being sandblasted to remove the corrosion and the door sills are also being addressed and re-built due to rust. The inner sills have been attached to the outer sills and anti-corrosion will be applied.

VW Camper welding continued

James has been sanding and smoothing the door frame window sill using the wire wheel on the grinder.

Four out of five doors have been prepared and are now ready for primer. James has discovered that the 5th door doesnโ€™t need such extreme work meaning its ready to go to Chris tomorrow after its been lined up on the van to make sure it still fits straight.

Spot Welding Progress On The VW T4

James has been continuing his work with the VW T4 Transporter Campervan. He’s currently tackling the corrosion in the wheel arch by fabricating new elements. James found that he struggled to get his spot welder into the smaller and more awkward parts of the wheel arch, so instead had to fabricate some bespoke patches.

Here you can see his welding and replacement parts. James will need to do the same on the other side next, and then move onto the wings to ensure that all of the corrosion has been address before it enters the paint bay. With properly engineered components, this beloved TR4 will be able to continue providing memorable adventures.
