Simon,
Have you enough information to re-create the sections that are badly corroded? It will be a real challenge, but no better man to take it on!
I'm looking forward to following this adventure !!!

Scary indeed Simon! Looking at your history of problem solving, it should be manageable. Courage mon brave.

Chris, I think that it has been bodged and bodged and bodged over the years, putting one plate over another and more filler and underseal .... it finally got to a stage where not even the most myopic MOT man could ignore it
Fortunately it is just the floors and lower part (except a bit on the A posts) so it is very strong down the middle and roof and the front apron area is OK. I took the decision to cut it all out and start again but it means lots of metal on the floor
Let's see what happens
On the plus side the mechanics are good !

Looking at the jacking point its like the repairs have been at the agricultural engineers not the village garage. I grew up down the road from both and there was zero overlap between the steel they'd stock.

OK - I hope that you are all sitting down before looking at these pictures ......
I decided to cut, cut , cut ...... doors refitted and lots of bracing welded in and then tipped over. Dave is being very brave
We have plenty of photos and measurements to go from, and I have also written to another camioncino owner for close up photos, hopefully it will be enough
You can open your eyes now !

Simon, you know I have made jigs to hammer the A pillar panels in if you want to use those. They weigh about 15 kgs a piece though....but you're welcome tu use 'm!
They are made on the furgone, I guess they should fit the camioncino too.

This is going to be a great addition to your fleet, Simon!
That is quite an overhang on the flatbed. Perfect for taking in the grapes!

After all the cutting, we have started to put some strength back into the rear "chassis" rails. Some of the internal strengthening will never be seen again ..... hopefully !
The A post jigs should arrive tomorrow - Thanks Koen !

A bit of progress today after all the cutting and cleaning up. Nice to see it coming together
First photo shows the lower, "A" post where it joins the inner wing, then the remade inner cill before the floor went in. It is all starting to add some strength back.
The jigs arrived last week , so big thank you to Koen
Planning to buy a bead roller to make some of the simpler profiles, good job it's not coming from the UK .....
