My 71 Bay resto project

[Alfie]

Thanks guys

managed to do a bit more today. It was a bit tricky :shock: but I have managed to weld up the chassis rail without dropping the beam..... just yet.

I thought I would do the front beam last as this will enable me to save my pennys to buy her some new shoes, shocks, and other bits to look sexy. 8)

Offered up the new outer arm thingy which I will work on tomorrow.

 

[easy]

Nice work fella! 8)

I take my hat off to you. Ths is a MONSTER project! You are a brave man for taking on such a job. I woosed out & bought a USA import.

Good luck with the rest of it, looks like you have most of the hard work done.

Once again thanks to everyone for the nice comments It's really great when folk leave positive remarks, thankyou very much.

Hope to meet a few of you at the coming shows and meets when I get my camper back on the road.

Started to do the body work now in the last push to finish for the summer.

Pics are slightly smaller, used my mobile phone to take these pics as today I dropped and broke my camera.

Heres the front with a bit of primer on....

Gonna finish the nearside tomorrow, weather permitting.
