Here we go, time to make public the old rust bucket itself. I'm only doing this so to remind me to get my a*se in gear and keep at it. So I bought the old dog earlier this year, it had had a severe smack in the front left and in the main needed a left hand wing and complete front clip which I think is how those colonials across the pond call them. After stripping the shell out I started on removing all the underseal and tar paper which seemed to be stuck on everywhere. A few nights with a butane torch and good blade saw to most of this, stinking job though, almost passed out from the fumes a couple of times. Unfortunately it uncovered a multitude of rust homes from engine compartment to rear seat squabs to sills to bonnet area under the petrol tank and the tank itself took four patches to repair. Yes welded the petrol tank, it only goes pop once, then yer OK. Oh both floors too and I welded in a new front cross member. I got the front from Karmoan Konnaction and the wing from Roger Bray and although I have fitted the wing I am not happy with the bonnet gaps so it's out with the porta power to ease everything out a bit. The bonnet has to go on before I can start with the front but the front of the bonnet was just one great lump of pug over rust so had to weld that up, a bit fiddly not wanting to get any distortion and I welded up the emblem holes cos I don't like the T6 handle. So I'm looking at this bare shell and I'm thinking sure would look better if it was all a bit lower. Shall I chop the top, I've only done one other car and that was a Beetle so I sort of know the deal but I am not sure about front screen. Actually I don't have a stock screen so moneywise I'm virtually there. And the car was never going to be a stocker anyway as I just hav'nt got all the original parts. Hacksaw in one hand, welder in the other, I'm going back out to the garage . . .And there's a pic of my Harley, aint she sweeeet
It will all come good in the end!
