With this panel a couple of meters long, your forearms get tend to get a good work out on the tin snips.

Getting the curve in the panel required flattening some of the bend and redoing it at a slightly different angle.

A tack here, a tack there [note the curve in the sill panel]:



Then the mother of all seam welds with the mig:



And there you have it, one home made sill panel.

Yeah, I was too lazy to put the little vent bumps in it.
The bend wasn't has sharp as I would have wanted.

It's far from perfect, but hey it only took a few hours and few people will see it once the car is back on wheels. What was that saying about an amatuer having built the ark, while professionals built the titanic?
