Rossco mate, just a thought it might be best to only weld 1" , then space, then 1" for flex stress. Consult an engineer or maybe some info or more knowledgeable blokes on here could add to this theory mate!
Made some more good progress in the shed. Quarter chop finished, bogged, sanded & primed, put some seam sealer on the inside too & painted. Fixed a couple of tiny dings the rest is pretty perfect.
Trimmed the rear guards a little. Was easier than i thought really, I've usually just bashed them back a little hack style, but did it a bit more properly this time.
Marked out new fold line, bent out old tab, flattened with some vice grips then marked cut line, cut, bent new crease slowly slowly then kinda bashed it square - came up pretty good. Just did the rear of the guards, looks like there's 15-20ml to be made at the front from trimming the plastic trim thingy so will just do that.

Pulled the windscreen out, found there was a big home for ants in the seal so had to get out the old mortein. . Sorry ants but glad their gone. 😕

Hey markie forgot too add panel beater came round the other night to look @ it, reckoned weld whole seem would be the go. Told us to rub the whole thing back with 800 wet & dry and use scotch brite in the pokey bits to make it dull before paint. Should be ready for panting in a few days I reckon, hopefully they can sqeeze it in soon.
Also droped into roadrunner and picked up some new door rubbers, bailey channel and one of their diff / gearbox breather kits. . .
Wallets Lovn this [emoji6] although hasn't been to bad so far. . .
