For someone whos not a welder etc. ,your approach is spot-on..
definately looks scary when you strip these things back to a skeleton ,but at least all work from now on ,is atttached to clean rust free steel..
Not telling you how to suck eggs...but follow the motto of measure 2-3 times before cutting /rewelding and continue to check chassis is square and untwisted..
Awesome effort...
Thanks for the pics..

Good to see some progress, well done.
Make sure all the square holes are squared up with a file after welding where the window frame goes in.
Trial fit it just to be sure, nothing worse than doing mods after paint.
