Ive asked him to take the filler out and place some sealer like silicone in it's place, as i wont to take the wings on and off etc.

Thats all for today.

Anyone reason why you bothered to repair the wing and not just fit a new one?

It's now become his main focus, as his other jobs are done, and not got to do any "BIG" jobs like this for a bit (mainly accident damage repairs, etc)
So he just want to get this all wrapped up now, he said he hoped to have it done already! lol

Im getting to the point were i dont want to let the missis have this now :roll: lol

Scott

Well when we first stated looking at it it looked OK, then we saw there was quite bit more rot in then we thought, so i was never going to find a "mint" 2nd hand wing in time, and all pattern wings are out off stock till March time, as if we could of got one he would of cut the bottom part off and replaced it with new from a patter wing etc, so this was last resort, fabricate something to suite, it's come out better then i thought it might.

Oh - nowt wrong with the outcome, just wondered that was all. Make sense now.

Can't wait for the colour splash!

No worries mate, i ask lots of questions too, so im happy to explain my antics! lol
Yep cant wait to see it done, was going to buy new boot badges, but there not so easy to get hold of, plus i think "shiny" one's might look odd, so going to reuse the one that are on it.

Still got loads to do though, got to do all the underside yet, and then some..:roll: :d

I guess when you look at the rear wing your right, as he only fitted it yesterday!
got so many ideas for it, but not enough time nor money right now.

Scott
