With MOT time approaching my plans were to just put the Corrado off the road until till next year but been enjoying running it so much I thought i might aswell just keep using it.
How she looks just now.
Anyway, first of the 'big' jobs. Ruined windscreen.
Got myself a bonded screen removal tool off ebay which turned out to be a pile of brown sugar and broke litterally after a couple of pulls so resorted to having to go round the inside with a stanley knife as much as I could around the top and both sides then kicking the hooor out. Worth pointing out i've not covered anything. Well I have no carpets in just now and the paintwork is past its best and will be getting redone. But remember, goggles and heavy duty gloves.
Then went round the frame with a soft chisel and a rubber mallet.
Knew i had some rust issues and this is what I have to deal with.
One sides totally rotten while the others not too bad.
The other job taking second priority is my crushed sill. What was originally a hole about an inch or two in diameter turned into this. Hence why the wings off.
Obviously needs to be a good job as it's on display so my metal fabrication skills will be tested on both here and the screen frame.
Not much else needing done for MOT, drivers window is held up with a block of 2 x 4, no bonnet cable fitted either.
Will update as it progresses.
