To keep this semi alive, put some new wheels on it.

Dave, tell the nice people about the progress, Dave.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Well, I welded both seat rails in, couldn't get the welder set up right, but they were in there like swimwear. DH then came and added some finess to the job and welded up the places that were impossible for me  :laugh:

Cleaned 83% of the sticky stuff off the roof, that will hopefully be finished tomorrow, with a heat gun.

Then I have a plan for the interior  :tongue:

No pictures of anything done in the last couple of weeks, too lazy  :grin:

It REALLY does - you need to drive back to back with some heavy wheels.  You will be amazed.

Cleaned another 16% of the remaining glue off the roof, this left 1%, that's staying on there :grin:

Then masked up all the windows and sunroof and primed as much as I could out of two cans of black primer. Need to go and get a few more cans tomorrow as drastically underestimated  :laugh:

Then will wait til early next week before going at it with the satin black final coat.

Looks good though, must fun I've had with it for ages, almost starting to like it again :whistle:

Good work dude
I really couldn't be bothered with the glue on the roof  :laugh:
Especially. After the cage was in!

Where are the pictures?  :grin:
