No problem, as soon as i have pictures ill post them!
As you can see there has been a lot of welding and filling especially the offside rear arch which has had to be re-built!
I will try and get a written breakdown off everything that has been done.

Looks great!

But why didn't you remove the windows? It's not that much work and there's Always rust under the seals.
