Mikey's 1992 Range Rover Vogue 3.9

I just bought this. It's got "some rust", but it's not terrible ... I think. Pretty much every interior panel is broken and most switches don't work. It's lovely to drive, even thou it's a bit knackered it still feels fancy. 

My plans are to sort the rust out, DIY respray, fix all the broken things and enjoy it.

I love a build thread full of rust repairs, so satisfying. But not something I want to spend my weekend doing...

Oh well... I attacked what I thought was the worst. Years of wet carpet has caused this.

 

The sill was sweet inside, lots of wax in there. 

 

I removed the rear seats to find this....

 

Eeeeep.

 

At least the bottom of the tailgate is mint.

 

The top is fucko'd...

 

It really could be better / worse

Did some CAD. Happy days!

This gap looks quite big, but it pulled away when I cut this panel, so attempting to put in the same gap.

I had a poke around at the passenger B-pillar. Yikes!

 

 

 

 

These are the last bad bits of rust done. I had a peek under the car and was amazed at how mint it all was, seems like most of the rust was caused by wet carpets and the rest of the body is good. 

I'm not totally chuffed with that b-pillar repair, it's solid, but could be tidier. The rest I'm happy with.
