Thanks Edd, I have thought about drilling holes from the inside so I can seal them up nicely.

Today I managed to get a fair bit done.

Finished off the N/S/F inner wing

I then degreased the bay and Etch primed the bare bits.

After that had dried I got the ode spray gun out and gave the bay a good coat of high build.

Seems the old paint on the front panel doesn't like the 2k high build, looks like I may have to bare metal the effected areas.

Here is the reaction.

While I was letting that harden I gave the rear quarter another coat of filler.

Blocked the top half off and put a guide coat on :)

And the front wing.

That's as far as I got though as I think now may have over done it :(

I like to punish myself, I was sat down relaxing in the house but I just couldn't take my mind of the ode Nova. In the end I went out and bare metaled the slam panel. Once I was happy it wasn't going to react again I gave it another coat of etch primer. Results came out well.

There are still a few areas to do around the turrets but I have made a good start anyway.

Dan

Got up this morning and finished the filler work on the rear quarter.

The line on the far right is masking tape. Finish is very good!

In-between coats I also gave the bay a little more high build in areas :)

Really happy with the results.
Next job is to finish the front end of the filler work around the sill.
