It’s been a while, but here is the second installment of photographs showing the various stages of the restoration and repair of both DP115 bodies that we were asked to carry out.

As you can see the distinctive lines of the Frank Feeley design are becoming more apparent as we repaired the various splits and cracks and cleaned everything up. These new photos show how we had to reinstate the Round Fuel Filler “bowl” which involved cutting out the existing square recess and welding in new material prior to refitting the body to its chassis and installing its fuel tank.
It was then a case of mocking up the recess before taking a fibre glass reversal and making a tool for us to set it into.

Both bodies were also missing their distinctive louvres in the rear panel. Using photographs which we had scaled up and trying out samples, we made some simple tooling to space the louvres and then set them in from inside the body. You only really get shot at doing this, or it’s a case of cutting out and welding in a new piece of metal and starting again, which is never ideal.

What it does show is that even relatively small jobs can become an engineering exercise in their own right, having to allow for thickness of metal etc, but they do all add up to make the overall finished body.
