Made new battery compartment

Click on thumbnail to see big photo.

The battery tray holder was rusted where it touched the parcel shelf so I drilled out the spot welds and removed it. 1.jpg (44613 bytes)
I then flattened it and used it as a pattern for a new one. 4.jpg (20477 bytes)
I folded it up and spot welded it. 2.jpg (19496 bytes)
As the surrounding metal was perforated and a little tatty I cut it back and made some strengthening strips which I spot welded on. 3.jpg (16638 bytes)
I then MIG welded the tray holder to the strips. 5.jpg (48149 bytes)
