Looks like your flying through the work, keep it up.

yep...i think 1 more big push and I can get the metal work / welding done and dusted.....will be really glad to get over that hump, can then just spend a few weeks getting some hi primer on it and rubbing down....nice easy work compared to the metal work

my aim is to have it ready for paint...if not painted....by May, fingers crossed, we'll see how that pans out :roll:

As expected, this is where progress has slowed right down, been spending my time grinding back all the welding underneath, finished off the repairs to the chassis rail around the torsion tubes and the crossmembers, cleaning all the rusty metal above the gearbox (and cleaning the actual gearbox itself which had about 3 inch thick crud all over it
Basically, the gearbox tray and all the offside underside are now in etch primer (apart from the front arch - that needs to wait till I can get access to weld in the new front step)
i'm sealing all the seams and once done will be giving the possible impact areas a coat of stone chip before giving it all a coat of nice shiney paint
