Some more 2C pics just came to hand. I thought I was just needing wings and sills but as you can see the bottom/outer 6 inches all around has needed replacing in many areas. I am totally blown away by the quality and detail of the work going on here....
First a pic of the overall extent of the work - sills on, wings tacked on, repairs to inner arches, front rear valances and rear chassis legs:
At an earlier stage in proceedings, here are the outer and inner wings cut away back to good metal:
New outer sill/cover fitted to align with door gap (work to inner sill shown in an earlier post):
Pratically the whole of both rear chassis legs has been replaced, and new spring hanger mounts inserted:
Outside of lower front corner re-assembled having been partly cut away to repair interior sections (see below) and partly refabricated:
Inside of lower rear corner:
Rear bump stop mount (cutaway version shown in a previous post):
This must have been the worst corner (nearside rear) - everything in sight is new!
Similar story the other side:
Inner rear valance ... with gratuitous factory-effect circles pressed in!:
New corners to boot floor over those chassis legs - look at the curved lip around the edges of the corner sections! These sections are "free-standing" and come close, but are not attached, to the inside of the wing (so small things can fall down into the lower wing corner!):
And finally, my personal favourite - hows this for attention to detail? The left half of this section has been refabricated, including the original pressed-in "X" shape - I'm guessing Bill Lewis was involved. To be honest, I didn't even have the car long enough to know that this panel existed (floor in front corner of engine bay between wheelarch and front bumper - I don't think there's an equivalent coupe panel):
