Lol, tbh, i probly could, GF could get a job in London easily. Hmm lol.

Just move lol

Its a 3 hr 15 min journey :lol: i'll have to pass.

Steve this what I love doing. Accident repair pays the bills and gives a bit of satisfaction but completly redoing a car from the ground up does put a smile on your face.
Can't wait to cut the arches off.

Yeah John exactly like that.
Andy come down for an interview ;)

Not got no pics of the work, just 3 of the car how it came in, ill get somre more pics, its just in primer at the moment.

thats quality and would love to be able to do what you do. andycorsasport that sounds no bad either get some pics up

thats so cool, so this is the type of bare metali should be aiming for then protect with the acid 8 stuff?

Do you like doing jobs like this Tom? Ive just done a G reg Nova SR, two new wings, new wheel arch peice on one side, and a repaint bar the roof. I dont really like working on stuff like that, rust and shit. But when its done and looking nice, its nice to see the end result.

I want to work for you :( Long ass commute :lol:

that gallant is cool is it a 4wd 4whs one?

The grey one and the White on are.

That mk2 you did is for sale now

I wish I lived near you Tom, you always seem to have interesting motors in!

do you sort out the rust? do you weld and fabricate much?

found out the to replace my rusty corner of sill is £110 + vat :lol:

Obviously a customers car but im really excited.
When it came in it was just a rolling shell.
Didnt actually take any pics but here's how it looks now





the shells not that bad for a 1979 car, only a few patches of rust.
got new rear arches and rear panel, and the bay will be semi smooth too, similar to the white one with the four spoke wheels
