Default my cossie getting minted again-UPDATES

heres my cossie i have had it 5 yrs and just cant let go of her so after some complete arse holes went down the side with a key or summat and scratched all the passenger side and also another cossie wot was parked just in front i was well wounded then exactley 1 week later on a sat morning at work some old twat who cant reverse hit my car on the drivers front. that was the last straw i nearley flatened him but i held my self back luckily.

heres the damaged to wing.





the guy didnt want 2 go through the insurance so he said get a quote and he'll pay it

so i got my mate robbo to give a quote £1250 he nearley had a heart attack so we settled on £900

robbo had a look and said there is a few bits coming throgh here and there so fuck it we'll spray all of it there was a bit of rust coming through on the roof rear panel and pass rear arch so the old art of leading was used to get rid of it

robbo said its easy well he sure made it look easy look at the results



robbo at work




done




rear arch





roof






shall be done soon

cant wait

no point in asking what colour big geoff's cars are, as said in the mag this month. if he had his way they'd all be imperial blue,
