With front done, I repeated the process at the rear – both will need final trim once the main section has been spot welded.
A quick fit back on the car reveals the inner wing arch will need some additional adjustment at the front.

This is my record of the restoration of my 1977 Triumph TR7, I bought the car in 1983 for £1500. Over the four years of driving it I had got married, moved to a 110 year old cottage in need of renovation and given a new company car. The TR was parked in the garage (1987) at the end of the garden. I always joked saying "that one day I put it back on the road". Twenty-four years later (Nov 2011) that day has arrived - wish me luck.

Front offside wing repair pt3...
Both ends of the repair panel needed work to make them fit correctly. I started by reshaping the outer flange which needs to follow the shape more accurately. Cutting small V slits in the flange allowed me reduce the amount of material making it easier to achieve the profile.
