geoffbeaumont Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 Sounds like you've got yourself a bit of a project... Whereabouts in Brum are you? My own rusty wrecks lurk in a dark corner of Northfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FridgeFreezer Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 For welding tips you might want to look in the tools & fab forum, sometimes the Welding Stig offers words of advice through an interpreter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThreeSheds Posted May 5, 2007 Share Posted May 5, 2007 Hi James - and welcome. You've certainly come to the right place for advice on all things Land and Range Rover and a few other things besides! For welding there is an excellent and informative thread here and loads more as well. Hope you enjoy your project and that you post pictures Cheers TS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rustyrangie Posted May 6, 2007 Share Posted May 6, 2007 Hi Dean, I'm just about at the end of a "Weldathon" on my Rangie. I think you'll find an RR easier to work on than most cars, I know I have. The metal is thicker than most, at 18gauge, and less likely to blow through when you're welding. Also most of the panels are simple flat plate with only the odd single plane bend. Dead easy to copy if you've the inclination and the time. However, expect to find LOTS of rust damage. One good point though, you'll be an ace welder when you've finished! Good luck.
