I have just read this all the way through as well. Very impressed with the technique used to get this sorted. Great work and I'll be following the rest of the build as well now.

There was a little bit of rust at the back of the roof so I got a section welded in there and I also got the upper frame part joined together ready to go in.

well the best part about most builds is that they're never REALLY done! come on, if you've ever modded a car you know that haha.
...but I do know what you mean

Made a start on the filler work today, I started on the worse aeras first
And after lots of sanding I ended up with this
Once I had done with the filler I have to whole panel a coat of self leveling finishing glaze to remove any smaller imperfections in the panel
I guide coated it and flatted it down, the guide coat helps you to see when you have got it all
One it was all done it looked like this
Then a bit of primer just so I could have a quick visual check on the repair
Just got the rest of the car to do now! Luckily most of the bits are new so it won't be too bad.
