Ground it down to give it that finished look. I'll be painting it all and this part will stick through the carpet so I want it to look as nice as possible. It is structurally sound no worries there.

Mocking up for fitment before cutting out the rest. Doesn't look like much fab is needed but minor cuts and bending to fit is definitely crucial and necessary.

How I left her off for the night. Little more to do on this side before it fits perfectly. Then on to welding and the other side next week!

Shot of the seam welded, still have to clean up the surface rust on the tub and lay down some seam sealer! I'm going for a factory look after all is said and done.

Boxed the frame back in and weld thru primer-ed the inside so I don't need to worry myself about any rust later on!

Tubs are equidistant from the inside of the quarter outwards and everything is square and true. Lots of tweaking, fitting and fabrication but overall worth it. Would I do it again? Short answer, No.
