Good and not so good. Was partially blasted 3 weeks ago and found more horrors. Decided to fit a new floor. So waiting for that arrive.

That coating on the floor is sound deadening.

 

I believe it is the Wurth one? Looks like it to me.

 

We used to use it at Vauxhall. It's good stuff and incidentally the stuff i am using!

If it is the wurth one, it is simply 'peel and stick' Then use a heat gun to warm it up to go down into the flutes and other recesses.

Yeah, good choice though! Bet it's going to look lush in the sun

It certainly does pop!

Very nice indeed Harry.

Are you building it back up yourself or the garage?

Building it myself! Wouldn't let them do the best bit!

 

Funds are very limited at the moment, so it'll be fairly slow progress, but progress all the same.

Here are some more pictures of the shell now it's been flatted and polished. It's being delivered as soon as my bank allows me to transfer funds again.
