Boxed structures part 1

Continued with the right side boxed structure under the fender. Before taking the photo I have already removed the plastic filler someone had used here to fill the rust holes.
The reinforcement sheet in front had to be removed.
Here we can see the 1,2mm sheet is rusted through. The rusted section is next to be removed.
..and again the 1,5mm structure is gone at the rear joint where three layers of sheets have been spot welded together. I have already started opening the layers in the photo. After cutting the rusted section off it was a straightforward task to make a new piece and start putting things back.
 
Fits nicely doesn't it.
