Beginning to investigate the drivers side sill, doors and front wings before starting any repairs.
Aiming to try and adjust the doors and wings to close nicely before cutting any panels.
Please follow along and leave comments if you have any questions or tips. I am grateful for any.

    You are getting there now. The wings are much better than i expected as they usually rot badly on the back edge and where the mud gets flung up behind the headlights. The sills can be a pain as they are three piece like the MGB i think it was. There is the inner, then a strengthener then the outer. People do get carried away when cutting them out and find once they have finished the doors don't fit. Mind you the door and sill alignment were never great.

    I owned a 1962 Consul 375 Lowline Convertible in the Early Seventies if one side of the Car were jacked up to change a Wheel the Doors would not open or shut!! it was an enjoyable car to own though..

    Yea the passenger side has already been replaced but there's now a 10mm gap at the bottom of the doors, yea I have all three inner panels. There are quite a few quick weld repairs so I'm hesitant to just cut stuff out. Well that's good to know about the doors, I'll get them as good as. I suppose that's just the character of the car 😅
