got car dropped off couple of weeks ago but didnt start it till week ago!

was crack in bumpers and paint flaking on them, loads of rust coming through on rear 3/4s

so day 1 was spend cutting rust out and welding new metal in

day 2 i put coat of fibreglass just to get everything smooth, 2 skims of filler and all was well

day 3 it was all maked up and primed

day 4 i rubbed car down and painted everything black then laquered

day 5 buffed car and put it all back together!

this was all done inbetween doing full time job with 8-12 hours a day there, lol

















next jobs:-

i do enjoy doing it, sometimes gets a little stressful on top of the pub, will cut down over summer when pub is busy!

not sure i can imagine enjoying it if i was doing it full time day in day out!
