Well more progress now car very nearly stripped, not sure how to take out the metal dash frame but found a thread so Ill do that tomorrow. Welding (IMG:style_emoticons/default/welder.gif) starts next week. Here are some progress shots.
I hope it is of interest. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif) Roman (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Attached image(s)
