Hi guys who likes my shelter lol,

 

This is how not to work on your zed,

 

 

 

The o no not again bit is I started my engine bay again, ive welded all the seams up on the passenger side now.

 

And started both sides again, gonna make it smooth so welded all the holes where u bolt fuse box and power steering pot.

Got rid of hicas so that nasty thing has gone too.

 

I'll get some closer pics up tomorrow, when ive sanded some of the filler I put on so badly lol.

 

Was gonna relocate fuse box to where my aircon pump use to be and power steering bottle under nose panel.

 

Anyone else done similar, got any advice or better ideas, or even better some pics of how they did it..

 

Thank u.

Loving your commitment matey but Health & Safety would have a field day with your set up lol.

 

Good to see that the weather hasn't held you back. look forward to following your progress mate. Well done.

 

H&s would shoot me lol, my bro in law was painting 2k in that I ran for the hills lol. His nuts said to him about wearing a air fed mask his worked in loads of paintshops and his nearly allways just used the 3m mask..

Hi guys didn't get much time at weekend, but got brackets welded on for power steering pot and started shaping the filler on passanger side of engine bay run out of time so sprayed some primer on it to stop it rusting till next time I can work on it..

Also welded up the hole in the corner each side to make it look really smooth.

So had to do a bit to drivers side again lol.

Couple pics for anyone interested

 

And thanks dougal200 nicked your idea for my pot much appreciated.
