my friend called me up and asked me if i could work on his car so i said yea no problem

 

i went to collect it from his house and brought it back to mine to start work

 

it needs 10 plates welding onit at the moment but im sure i will find some more rust along the way as you will see from the pics im getting rid of all the bodykit from it

 

ive started the welding and also some of the body work

 

so far i have removed the smooth boot skin and started to fill on the wiper hole and a few other holes that where in the boot lid

 

changed the bonnet ect

 

this is what the car looked like when i picked it up

 

 

 

and here are a few pics of what it looks like now

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

now ive got to finish welding the car and then flat all the paint back and make it all straight and true then spay it in primer ready for its top coat in ice blue

at the moment its 130bhp from the little 1.4 turbo engine

 

but with a few mods he is hopeing toget around 210bhp from it

 

p.s carnt wait to see that the great funkysi has to say about this car as i am sure he will love it lol ;)

Oh dear.

yep ive got my fingers crossed that he wont get it done i wanted him to get it painted in the yellowy goldy greeny colour that they did but he wants white :(

im not sure if you can see much difference from the other pics but the car has been done with 120,240,320 and then twice with 1200 wet and dry it is very close to being ready for primer now so hopefully if tomorrow is a nice day i can get it in primer fingers crossed

 

 

 

 

 

 

i have also been working on a mk2 fiesta for the last two days here a couple of pics

 

 

 

 

 

 

this rear end was totally gone so i welded 2 plates in and then added a little bit of filler so i could shape it all in i personally think its not a bad job

 

Yor doing a fantastic job :)

 

Puntos should only be one colour and thats yellow

Its always fantastic when you get to that point - seems so much better, much less weary, like you've actually made progress and getting to the end :D
