il prob just leave it for now
once it welded in il just geti it painted when im doing the bay
good work matey your cracking on with it like!!
front struts out
some rear shots after i removed the bumper
the worst piece of rust on the car with the evidence of a previous botched weld
daddy getting ready to give me a hand to which the engine out :yesmaster:
engine out and i just simply cut the middle of the crossmember and lower panel
yet again daddy put his skills to good use and made me 4 adjustable axle stands, custon made to be high to work under the car as i dont have a lift
some basic bits il need to get started, i dont plan to use the hammerite until much later for painting arms etc after i get them sanded and treated for future rust
just a quick sand down with the sanding wheel if thats what youd call it, after this i removed all the seam selaer and shwed very little rust
done a bit more work since these photos where taken, battery died on the camera but its charging now so il get more quick pics asap

ea basically restore it back to original health and just have it looking very freshOriginally Posted by dj_wudgey
only mods for the minute is the 60mm springs, janspeed exhuast which came on it, k&n airfilter and im considering a 4branch also
as for wheels the 3spokes are staying but if cav slabs or astra mk3 wheels pops up before i get around to refurbing the 3 spokes i may buy them
interior will be steam cleaned, new audio components and maybe a digi dash but i think retro original is just as nice
at the minute im concentrating on getting the underseal and sema sealer off and fabrication, quite happy with my progress so far
thanks for the comments dj wudgey and stuart
