Couple of teaser pics for you, this wing was dragged back into shape with a Body Rasp, making it tight as a drum, pulling out all the factory production imperfections, the filler is largely to fill the score marks, made by the Rasp! worn tooling is responsible for the "high spots" in the top section to the left hand side of the wing, by no means bad, but there all the same...



Door was given the same treatment as the wing, both were rubbed down in unison, to ensure that after paint, any reflections would carry straight through the side of the car, without any deviation...



Thanks for the compliments chaps. Satty, I love you :grin:
