Just visited my car again this afternoon, it's not the most exciting update I'm afraid, but at least it is progress [
]
The nearside is almost finished now, the sill is done bar a little welding to the leading edge and the rear wings rusty corner has been replaced and was just in the process of being tidied. Behind the rear wheel was a dent which is being pulled out.
One of the GF wings is on and it looks pretty good, it only needed a little trimming apparently. The roof rack holes are now filled [
] and most of the bolt holes in the interior are done too.
Alan has come up with a cunning way to mount the sunroof panel and I think this should look really good when it's done.
The headlights are going to cause a bit of a headache, as I think I mentioned previously they're naff but will have to do for the time being. Alan has already tried some brackets out on Simon's car which were a success, so fingers crossed there shouldn't be too many surprises.
There was an S2 there which has met a rather sad end, it looks to have been in superb pre accident condition and was written off for a relatively light front impact, it had bent the chassis rails but surely would have been repairable. Simon's breaking this and there are a couple of nice bits on it I have my eye on [
] (however there's a good engine going if anyone's interested).
That's about it for the time being, hopefully the next update will be a bit more fun to look at [
