At approximately 16 min, when installing the exterior handle backing, ensure all locking tabs from this part are hooked and visible from the exterior. If not aligned, the securing screw for the handle will not align.

Prior to removing locking mechanism, the window runner can be removed. The rubber guide can be pulled aside to reveal at T15 screw. The plastic runner guide can be partially removed to give much more access to removal and install. Careful not to drop screw (which can be retrieved using magnet). Instal at about 15:00 would be much easier after removal of runner.

I would highly recommend you weld that plate to the sides. Also if you have a stick welder or know someone who does. Have them use some hard-facing rods to lay beads down the side of the bucket It will significantly lengthen the life span being you will be dragging the welds against the material, not the bucket itself.

On stripping it down, I found a loose bolt in the recoil housing that matched a securing bolt but non were missing!?. The saw ain't no virgin!.

The problem I see that there are gaping holes in chassis and panels. This would also mean remaining metal will of be compromised at this stage i.e. thinner.

Hi, you are correct in your statement about the remaining metal being thinner, but that is just how aging vehicles goes. I check this car regularly, it has passed two more yearly safety inspections with no issues. I have checked the entire chassis over and it is still solid, in fact there is still factory paint on the front half in places.
