Tidy welding work 
I put checkerplate only on the base of the step.
Good idea to replace the whole thing, looks great !

[stumpy1972uk1]

cheers guys , the steps took me approx` 3 hours to mark out , cut and fold then spot weld each. around 2 - 3 hours to fit.  folded the edged of the step seperatly as the return bends are hard to do.




more pics to follow now im working on the front arches.

the lower part of this arch was rotton , to replace it took 6 different shapes of metal joind together to get the same profile. daft thing is this will be hidden away under flared arches.




the rotton section .


primered up , ready to be refitted.
