Slowwwwwwww progress....

Hello to you all

Been a while I know , been busy , overtime mainly to fund this project!!!

Think going to start with the gaping hole that used to be where the rear bench was.
Finished the template and that will be picked up shortly and made out of 5mm steel and folded to fit, some pics of the hole and the template, may not look much but will be spot on when finished I'm assured.

 

 

 

 

A quick update on the roof situation, decide to sand down the pillars to locate where the skin is braised on, looks like this:

Also been picking out the sealant from under the gutter rail to locate the spot welds ready to drill them out and after a bit of trimming front and back to keep a small lip for bonding purposes the roof will be lifting straight off. Well that's the plan come Saturday.

Ordered a new front and rear end just as I wasn't happy with the condition they were in and I'm sure a wise man once said "if a jobs worth doing, its worth doing right"

As I speak they are sat there in the garage waiting for me and were a real bargain from Germany and were here in a few days!!

So in preparation started removing the rear end , loads and loads and loads of spot welds and sealant, just needs the braising cutting now.

Heading in right direction:

 

 

All a learning curve .....

 

That will do for now :)
