Shortly I will remove my rusty outer TR6 sill. Any words of advice? Exactly what measurements should I be taking? I took ownership of the car with the door, and both front and rear fenders already removed so I do not know the the original fit of all the body panels. Jackstands are supporting the frame, and the engine is still in the car. The replacement sill was purchased from TRF and it looks like I will have to beat it somewhat as some of the bends are not as crisp to my expectations. The inner sill does not have to be removed, only patched at the first inch of the forward leading edge. Both the A and B posts are in excellent condition. Should I fit the replacement sill with the car on jackstands or should I put the tires on and put the car on the ground?
I'm not an expert welder but I'm not a novice either. This will me the first major panel removal on my six, and I'm nervous and eager at the same time. Sage words of advice are appreciated.
