Martin decided to whack the beast onto a big puller to see if we can straighten up the left rear quarter. The left door never sat properly and the gaps were not even.
The crease in the boot floor/ subframe and the unnatural flare in the wheel-well needed to be removed.
The procedure is pretty straightforward. Hook up a big chain to the subframe, bolt the car down to a level plate and give it a huge pull. Bit like torture on a rack I suppose!
After pulling the back, errr . . . back, he put a ram inside the wheel arch and applied pressure.
Then heating the metal, proceeded to belt and shrink the arch back into shape.
