I would also like to say the damn twat who applied the seam sealer on this shell needs shooting. Some obvious areas the sealer missing the panel seam entirely! PLUS the amount of it, some places reaching up to 3cm deep!!!!

Fair play.  Brings back recent memories that I've been trying to suppress, and brings on cold sweats from thinking of what likely needs done for next MOT...

pictures will tell the story!

I can taste the end of the welding! 

The last thing i need to do is weld on a rear valance, which should be a doddle, if the panel would just turn up!

1 last weld, then i can put the torch down for good and get the thing seam sealered, painted and undersealed! 

A year this month this Rusty bucket has had my slavery, all those hours gone into it!

It has taught me so much about welding and fabrication i owe it that much! 

Enough talk, lets illustrate the progress!

Weldathon was completed a year ago, not much has happened since, but rust prevention, epoxy paint, stone chip and dynax cavity wax.

It's also had a couple jobs done like loom repairs and interior floor paint.

(I am doing things on a budget, but from this still ensuring a decent car)
