Just read through the 20 pages, one word Brilliant!

I know someone with a peugeot 206 and thought about putting their rear fog on mine, great minds etc

Nice repairs, pretty disheartening to be doing it again though. Think they will be as straight as they first time?

Good to see it coming on, should be a cracker.

Cheers, it should be straighter, I was aware of a few bits that weren't quite right, but only noticed them when I lacquered it!

Looking good Pete. Did you manage to sell your shell up north or have you still got it. Could be interested.

[panelbeaterpeter]

Cheers, Yeah I managed to sell it locally.

Progress has been a bit slow of late, but had Saturday afternoon off, so decided to get cracking and repaint the roof.

Couldn't get hold of a paint booth to use at short notice, so I made a little room out of polythene sheets



It was going to be going solid black again, but a mate mentioned he had some metal flake samples.. needless to say after a phone call to my sister, the decision was made



4 coats of lacquer later

I cannot believe i have missed this project!

Great project! Keep up with the work

the fog lamp!

[panelbeaterpeter]

Cheers guys I'm not sure about the metal flake either Jack, I keep lifting the cover off to have a look, and I think.. I like it. It's quite subtle, and a bit different which is kinda the idea. It's quite straight, in fact better than it was previously, still needs a good flat and polish And yeah it's been knocked about a bit being moved around the place several times, at the weekend I'm having to re-paint the rear end, and N/S quarter due to dents and chips, that have magically appeared. Caused, I believe, by the dent fairy.
