Haven't updated the thread in a while. Been busy painting an MG and putting in some O.T. at the real job.
Here are a few shots of the MG after I finished it up last weekend.

I worked yesterday morning and puttered in the shop in the afternoon. I got my new Alston Varishocks last week and also the rebuilt Corvette rack so I got the new rack and shocks mocked up. It looks like I will have to do a little clearancing on the upper arm to clear the spring at full rebound, not much, just a bit.
Mel came out this morning, said he was going stir-crazy waiting to get back on the van. I said me too...
We worked on the right front wheel well today. It is all welded in tonight and ready for primer and seam sealer... It's not perfect but it will do the job and it is super solid after being welded in.
Welding in the inner half. This is all spot welded in from the top.

Working on the outer half. The lower flange is spot welded to the floor and the underside is welded to the inner half.

Mel worked on "fixing" some of the booboo's we made while cutting out the inner. We did not need to go as high as we did so some of this stuff is getting put back in.

This will get spot welded in AFTER I have all of the seam sealing done on the outer panel.
