Cills!
Ive discovered as I suspected that the cills have been replaced. What they've done tho is to slap new cills over the top (without recessed trim bit), leaving the old and, assumingly rotten, cill underneath.
Looks a bit cack, although looked ok on the car when it was together. My question is what would you do, cut the perfectly fine slapped-over-the-top cills off and the rotten ones underneath and replace or leave as is?
:dontknow:
Also, I have made a word file of the story so far, anyway to put it up on here without uploading pics 1 by one?

It sounds as if you're going to alot of trouble to restore the motor, so…
… MY personal choice woul be to remove he bodge and do it properly, at least that way you know you won't have bother in the future.
As for word file uploading - no idea?? post in website querie section thingy.

My next question is where can I get hold of Cills with the trim strip stamped in (the 'slapped-over-the-top' ones dont have it….)
Obsolete?
