N/S done.



Only just started and its a pain... Got to take all the underseal off of the arches and take all the old stuff off the underside too!!!



Rusty...



How I left it tonight. Going to get all the rust out of the o/s tomorrow, get all the underseal off of both inner arches and weld up under the rear bumper.

Was at the garage all day today, cut ALOT of rust off the o/s arch, welded up the rear panel and cut out the tin foil strut brace

Wasn't expecting it to be this bad lol



Rear panel welded and seam sealed



Top quality welding from previous owner, couldn't even be bothered welding the whole way round...



And a random one of the nova showing my piece of shit French car who's the boss



Will weld the o/s up in the week then it's just a case of finding somewhere to store it whilst I do the engine.. The garage I had lined up may have just fallen through..

Cheers mate, making it so that when its got seam sealer and underseal on that it looks like its never been done

This was by far the most annoying patch to make!!



Will all be welded up Saturday then it's time for the engine to come out

It's nice welding something and doing all the fabrication work when you have a good welder and good equipment, pisses me off doing it at home. At mates garage Ive fabricated loads of banger equipment and its all good.
Then i come home and need to weld some bits on my rear beam to hold hand brake cables on corsa and think no ill leave it Keep up with it cause you will regret it if you dont.
