lol, on a serous note thou, both primer and body filler are porous, and will leave the metal under it to start to rust again, without you knowing it lol.
Lol, it must have looked like you had two big toes on one foot lol

Nick J put arches in his Yellow mk1 SR, that looked a top quality proper job

All depends how you do it Edd :) There's NO wrong way just folk do it different ways
Personally if I done my arches I'd have cut them out but most places and the guy who done mine at the time lapped them over the top
Just down to personal preference :)

He doesn't post on here any more.
How come?
Not sure, there was a thread somewhere about a new RC as he'd left and moffat confirmed he had no intention of logging on again.
Oh right! Wonder what happened there?

that comment has well pissed me off!!!!
what i meant is, some of us scottish members feel like the club is more biased for the english members. No wonder vaughan left tbh. All the arguments that went on with the sport. Yeah he bought the car and didnt end up restoring it, so what it was his to do what with. Least its finished now. Not wanting to cause an argument just imo
16v nova kev - that comment wasnt directed to any members in particular
