Well as some of you know ive got my Mk2 Astra Estate that i xe'd, well the mot ran out after going to Avon park. My old workplace was where i did all my welding and i know work for Jaguar and we dont need one lol, so i bought a little 130amp minimig and decided to weld up the 3 patchs on the estate ready for the mot and possible sale. So she needed 1 patch each side on the front inner wing (splash guard) and the petrol filler neck had rotted away so wasnt being held on but for the petrol cap lol I also decided to put my cav slabs on her aswell, all sorted now petrol cap was a bit awkward and burnt some paint off even though i plastered it with duck tape but it should grind down and with a skim of filler hey presto all being well, still unsure whether to sell it or keep it and fit a saab turbo engine??

Opinions welcome!!

My new little welder has really good penertration for a small one
