Left side, rear wheel arch, looking towards the front. An interesting detail to notice here is the vertical cut above the highest point (slightly to the left) of the new wheel arch panel. This is now welded shut again, but it was one of those master-welder decisions to suppress distortions to the old panel.

Another point of interest is the new part, clearly visible to the right of the open sill. It plays a very important role in bringing the weight of the body onto the underfloor beams. I discussed this new part before with photo 78.
