Attaching the sheet-metal to the rear cab proved to be quite difficult and a marathon effort, but we eventually got there. As we are completely inexperienced at welding everything requires a lot of planning beforehand and slows us down. It was found that cutting vertical slots in the curved corner panels and clamping them firmly against the old sheet-metal was the best way of welding them on(see pics attached).
