LOL You have more chance than us with little Gary mate, the clubby is nearly all welded up that's a massive mile stone

[GT Jimmy]

Back on the GT today, Had a go at welding the front end

Then we put the wings on

 

So we're dead happy with todays progress, We'll have to have a crack at the door skins next

Looking good, another milestone completed you must be well pleased.

Brilliant progress Jimmy. I bet it feels amazing to get it to this stage. It looks like a car again!

It's a good feeling mate, I've come a long way from the first day when I was crapping my pants cutting the front panel off

Looking really smart. Won’t be long before it’s getting sprayed and rebuilt ?

Thanks mate, hopefully have it painted in the new year, my nephew is on standby

[GT Jimmy]

We stripped the doors today of glass, handles etc and fired up the grinder. You know the feeling when you wish you never bothered...

 

 

 

 

 

 

There's been a couple  of dodgy repairs in the past, seen as the car was only 10 years old when it was taken off the road shows how crap the rust protection was in the old days

 

 

 

 

So that's 2 new skins added to the list as well as repairs to the door bottoms. Balls!

At least you'll know they're right!

[GT Jimmy]

As right as I can get them haha. They didn't look that bad till I ripped em apart
