    Told you before to stay away from edges and swage lines!

    Looks much much better peel is almost gone, good work dude.

    Well it's been quite a while since I was last on here last. About seven years or so!

    The other day it dawned on me that my boy starts secondary school in September and would be getting himself to and from school. This means my days off will actually be days off *yehye* it also suddenly hit me that it was over ten years since I painted my nova! Plus it was twenty years this year that I took it off the road to rebuild it. I have to admit this has shocked me a bit.

    I wandered off and thought I should have a looksie at what is left of the old girl...






    I kind of wished I hadn't!

    So I suppose I'm going to try and start cleaning out the garage to make space to make a start again. So watch this space over the next few weeks and months...

    PS missed you

    Garage is massive but full of unacceptable things. Get it out and you'll soon get motivated, 20 years is mad

    Obviously I had forgotten about this, just skipped back and skimmed the thread, wow £850! 20 years in the garage has made you some money!
