Having seen this beastie close up I love it. Small surface rust on the sills... :brows:

The 31's really set it off. Hope you get it finished for Wagtail!
If it ticks over...leave it

Started to look at doing the sills.

What a mess. Everything is just hacked and fucked.
Id got some 80 x 80 box but it seems I should have gotten
100 x 100. Im going to fabricate my own tucked sills
Then eventually make some tube sliders/ step for the misses.

I knew they was patchwork but this is just ridiculous. What a bell end

When I did my sills, I used 100x100 which was spot on

Tonights progress.

Folded up some sill panels. Had to do three as the folder is
Only 4ft wide at work :lol: . I used some inch x inch angle
Along the bottom.

The arch is another story. :roll:
