Recieved an email today off fordpartsuk to advise rear inner sills are no longer available :evil: does this mean my puma has to be scrapped now or could a welder fabricate summit?
 
The chassis looks ok my vin number has disintegrated and those rear sills are shocking the rest of the car is spot on I desperately want to keep it on the road
 
The worst place for it to go is on the rear chassis rail around the rear beam mount brackets. If there is rot on this I wouldn't bother trying to repair it.

I'll have a look you don't have a pic do you of where I should be looking?
 
If you look at my build thread on the first page it's the 12th photo down. On the photo it's not the panel that's cut out (although that may be rotted as well) but the rail above it which is in thicker gauge steel and has the 4 holes in it for the axle/beam bracket.
