Ok then guys,bit of an update.after 5 weeks of doing well and getting sales at work they wanted to put me on commission only,right before xmas,no thankyou.so looking for another job again.

nothing more actually done on the shell yet,as need to get a bit of cash together for the welding,if i cant get a job it should be january,hopefully i do and get it done sooner.gotta get a couple of long extension leads and a light so can work on the shell and start derusting.and some anti rust primer and paint for the inside of the shell.

have done a little bit of work though.

turned these rusty front speaker brackets



with a bit of work and anti rust etc



into



sorry not the best pic,need a better one but my mates borrowed the memory card adapter.
But all sprayed up black,im quite pleased really,actually the 2nd time ive sprayed anything in my life.

also started anti rusting,anti rust primering,painting the seat belt brackets and other brackets that are bolted onto the shell,no point putting rusty things on once ive got a mint shell.but there not finished,will post pics when thats done.

and i also cut out the front bumper.



i know alot of people dont like it,and it makes the bumper weaker but i like it.

its not finished yet,still gotta smooth down the edges and sand it down ready for paint etc,and the plate is only positioned roughly there at the mo.

ok folks well will try and keep busy and post up when ive got some news.
p.s was toying with reshelling this project but am not no.gonna crack on and get it done,albeit if slowly lol

cheers
