Work continues on fitting the inner rear wheel arches.
On the nearside, I've fabricated a support for the rear of the inner wheel arch from 8mm mild steel bar. It's fixed to the rear tub floor with saddle clips and now needs painting. The saddle clips are fixed to the bar with a dab of J-B weld to stop any movement.

I then moved on to cutting and fitting the offside wheel arch.
It is fixed in the same way as the nearside at the front.

But, at the rear, I had to re-arrange one of the breather pipes to clear the inner wheel arch.

And the stay fixing had to be bent forward as the fuel tank was in the way at the rear. It can just be seen here below the body tub seam.

I just need to now remove the stays for paint and final refit.
It's taken far too much time but I'm pleased with the final result.
Stay safe...........peter
