What beats me is how they got it in there. Must have drilled some holes in the floor and poured it in.

I once found a load of flat 3-core electrical cable stuffed in a sill and filled over....

... the only injury I sustained was a bumped head when I let the seatbelt of without realizing the car was upside down  and that's not really the car's fault. |

Concrete filled sills was a reasonably common bodge. In the days when sills were checked with just a quick tap to see if they were solid, some really were!!!!!!

Concrete sills are probably a lot stronger than some of the pigeon sh*t welding i used to do on my old clunkers when I was 18.

I'm led to believe that Crayford built some drop-top Allegro's in the 70's.... and had to pour concrete into various parts of the body to stop them twisting / snapping in two..... |
