Grinding now. Happy that I just bought a cheap air grinder. Had to weld nuts on the stuck bolts, the head was so rusted the tools Just slipped.

Got the door off and cleaned up a bit.

Got the welding done and as usual it was way more than it looked like at first glance.

Had a bit of trouble getting it MOT'ed as the rear brakes where weak. could not find anything apparently wrong with them but after cleaning and putting new pads and rubbing and lubing the cylinders it passed.

So now i will pack for the weekends event, an Overlanding festival.

Will try to take some pictures of other jimnys if any, I know one SJ413K will be there.
mostly arctic trucks with roof tents, but also other more self builds like mine.
Pretty sure my camper trailer will stand out still.
