We have a member here, Drew, selling the same car minus engine. I will find the link and post it here for you!

Yeah, I had a quick dig into the left side, The panel seems solid, but it looks like someone has cut off the bottom panel. The outer skin doesn't touch the inner panel, nice big gap between them :lol: Ah well, just one job on a long list

(I use left / right instead of driver / passenger side as I also have this thread on a couple of UK based forums, and some people are easily confused

Awesome ! I love seeing build threads.. especially ones that go on for a few years without the owner giving up !

Keep it up. You'll have a serious ride when it's all said and done with.
