Rebuilding the old panel.
I have never welded car before so this will be good practice before I do the welding on my MGB!
I'm using an old Murex (British) MIG welder, 0.8mm wire and Ferroline gas mix.
Watched lots of YouTube videos!
First thing was to find some reference dimensions!
I made a template by measuring the chassis mounting points, then made a simple fixture.
Before then I made some new parts from 2mm steel.
Some before and after pics below.
