Just been doing the same job on my Expert sills. They look pretty good on the inside but the out side had almost water bubbles appear on it, somehow and who knows how the water had got under the original paint coating and was slowly eating away the outer sill metalwork. I have managed to cut out the rot and repair, but what a pain to do. Its not the prettiest finished job i've done but it is a lot more solid.

Only to those who lack the skills to repair and prevent it happening again.

Ah, that moment in your life when you realise DIY isn't just about the money.

These are possibly the easiest vehicles to rust repair - they weld good, the rust is usually isolated as opposed to everywhere & there's nothing too difficult in the way of shapes - simple really. I like working on them.

I also have the rear axles down to a fine art at this stage, lol - they do like a bushing or two.. Drench the insides with ATF when you're done welding - works the finest. :-)
