I was intending to weld a patch onto the chassis of my 1997 D90 300tdi to get it through the MOT.
Tapping away to find solid steel to weld onto, I demolished a section about 15 inches by 3 inches down one side. The same thing happened when I started tapping along the under side of the chassis! I stopped tapping when it was obvious I was going to end up with a pile of rust!
Obviously, I either need break this vehicle for spares or fit a new chassis.
What are the pro's and con's of doing the latter? For the first time, I have a nice new barn with a level concrete floor to work on and plenty of time. Could this be achieved by one man working with pulleys and levers? And who makes the best chassis for the money?
(Thank goodness I had the foresight to buy another Landy so I am at least mobile!).
