We only had to use the extinguisher once last week on Dave's Golf.  :grin:

Unfortunately when there's several hundred degrees of metal being sprayed about fire is pretty likely.

I think Dave might need new fuel lines.  :whistle:
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

We have had a few mini fires from all the underseal!
Think it will need redoing once we are finished!

Dave spent quite a lot of time while I was welding, giving his car a blowjob due to the underseal getting pretty feisty.  :grin:

I need to get some practice with welding the 3mm to the thinner floorplan as too not burn through it!
I'm sure I will get there......eventually!

Yeah yours are looking very tidy I would be happy!
