Finally getting round to addressing the wheel arch rust. It seems that the seals between the bodywork and liners have badly deteriorated that has allowed water in and to stay. Looking to replace these anyone done this before?
I suspect a question for that those that dismantle 3200's for spares but does anyone have any experience of removing the sill covers? Seems that they are riveted underneath with a couple of plastic covers concealing 10mm bolts. I suspect front arch liner needs to come out of front wheel arch to reveal some more fixings? I have found the one fixing bolt inside rear arch liner.
My main question relates to the metal door threshold cover - does this need to come off to remove sill covers? Is it concealing any fixings? There are 3 very small screws under seal that have rusted out so suspect these need to be drilled out but once I do that is the metal cover fixed anywhere else or is it glued in position?
Any guidance welcome.
