hopefulley the end of next week ( all being well ) was hoping for a full day to day but 4 poeple booked in last nigth and i need to keep the money coming in at the mo as i have only been up and runin 2 weeks now on my own so need to pay the bills lol.Tom i've just read your thread from the start, it's coming together well - the underneath looks brilliant.
Wayne you've done a good job with those door gaps it's not easy to get good results.
When do you think you'll start laying down some colour?
got an hour on it this morning to do the filler bits on the door skin ( just to take out sum hammer mark's ) then need to finnish the filler on the qurt panel same on the other door then the big job sorting out that dam roof ( not lookin forward to that bit ) as that will be a pain in the ass . so may be sum o/t for me i think
