Got the arm off with a combination of thin cutting discs up the inside face of the swing arm mounts from underneath, and hacksaw from above. Outer bolt was seized solid of course, but I managed to turn the inner one and so do it all with the disc. Kept the inner swing arm mount in good nick, but it does need a good clean up before being used again. Chopped up the outer mount to give better access for cutting.
Removed the bushes. Think my arm is scrap...
Cut out the panel above the rear arch.
Nothing too surprising...
And pulled off the side cover...
Next, I guess is a card template for the inner arch material that needs to be replaced before cutting off (breaking off?) the outer arch.
Need to get an 8mm spot weld drill, as the one I got is 6mm, and a bit wee for the spot welds.
Then remove the remains of those panels round the C post, cut out the rust at the base of the C post, and B post, remove inner and outer sill.
I don’t want to think ahead any further than that...
