Laguna Blue 75 build thread, Freshly painted Options

The previous owner told us the hell hole and longs had been done and he seemed like an honest car guy. So that was dumb and naive of me. It was clear that a bunch of work had been done around the hell hole, which looked good from the engine bay. When we got it home and on the lift we were faced with a rusted out lower firewall.
Ordered a firewall repair panel.
We pulled the engine today and cut out the lower firewall and it’s pretty ugly.

Making good headway on the repairs on the right side. Got the inner long repaired, and rebuilt the front corner of the long by the A pillar. Fabricated the inner and outer skin of the outer long ahead of the suspension console. Reinstalled the heater piping and welded in the outer skin of the long.
Next up is finishing welding in the newly fabricated parts and a whole bunch of grinding.
