Um, kind of for a reason now as I don't want to post half finished stuff, major body related works going on and want to post some finishes.

Also doing an 8 mile round trip to Newcastle soon to pick up something i've always quite fancied, don't really need but was a lucky bargain I couldnt resist!

I don't blame you for not reading but glad you managed to have a flick through!

Yeah, i never thought i'd be doing what i'm doing now, 6 years on!  :shocked:

Coming along nicely.

Fingers crossed for the MOT.  :cool:

Thanks, I hope she's going to be OK and i'm not wasting my time and money!

The cold winter weeks got in the way, plus I was a bit lazy but the new man shed has helped me prep in the evenings and today has allowed me to paint...  I am tired of how long this is taking me now and it's obvious I need a full professional respray when funds permit.. As a result my attention to detail has slipped some what, so now this is all about getting the old girl back together in an OK looking state.

Front Valance

Not easy to see in the pictures but there were lots of small damaged areas

Side Skirts

As you may remember the skirts had extra holes drilled, the extra screws that were used were rotten and fooked and needed to be ground out.  This damaged the skirts and I had to repair the damage I casued.  :sad:

The remaining arches

Obviously only posting the process for one of them.  :smiley:



At some point this car had mud flaps attached to each corner of the kit, the previous owner had cut them off as the screws were rotten.  I had to tackle all four remains which involved a lot of swearing!
