Well......technically yes you are as all men never grow up (so it is drummed into our tiny little minds)

But I was having a proper growen up conversation lol

coming out to play???? lol
 
My 18 year old son gets annoyed with me when his mates turn up on the doorstep and I call out to him and ask him if he's going out to play! ;)

He will get over it, my older son did [}:)]

I'm working nights this weekend so not much opportunity to work on Harvey but did manage a couple of hours of rot chopping and cutting bits of floor out yesterday.

I suspected the jacking point was a bit dodgy under this so only one thing for it.

A small piece of inner cill to replace along with the jacking point but the rest of the box sections look fine - just surface rust that responded well to a scrape and a dash of Aquasteel[^]
A few more bits to cut out on the wheel arch before the new metal goes in but that will have to wait for a little while.

I've been guilty of a few bodges in the past as you can see by the patches on the wheel arch (but at least it's welded metal:I) but now it's time to put things right:)

I've been very noisy today - taking advantage of the neighbors being away[}:)] The result...........

S'pose I'd better start putting some metal back in before there's nothing left :I
The first bit

New section of inner cill in place

And the box section that holds the jacking point



Not forgetting the extra reinforcement fillets



Next up is to make the jacking point - I need a big vice to form the metal around the tube. It's either pick one up from the auto jumble tomorrow - or a visit to the workshop in work at some point - auto jumbles usually come up trumps:I.

Hey oop Panky mon:D

How you doing mate?

Nice work there[8D] I just said to Cazz '' I actually find Panky quite annoying!!''

''Why?'' she said?

''Because, in the nicest possible way, I'm jealous because Panky just seems to have this bottomless pit of knowledge & confidence to just get on with it and produce some amazing progress and results''

''Oh thats ok I wondered what on earth was going on!!'' she said!
