right, next saturday.......................... more arse-ache when i finally got the bumper off.....
found a couple of places for me to brush up on my welding. firstly a huge patch on the rear panel behind the bumper, and a sh*te load in the boot. this is yet to put me off mind, merely the first hurdle. (second if you count the bumper incident..). anyway, i was expecting some rusty bits so i decided to crack on stripping the boot out. when i found this.....ÂÂÂ
not impressed to say the least. never mind, it is a project after all. so, a couple of hours later, and hey presto!!
not bad if i do say so myself. just gotta patch the other side when i take the suspension leg off.
after a bit more grinding and such, i plated the load of holes i found in the rear panel....
and stuck some seam sealer on it to keep any more of that b*stard called rust away for as long as possible....
next week, hopefully get the plastics, and the front bumper off to find anymore of that horrible flaky brown stuff. fingers crossed I've seen the last of it...............................
