My Spray booth converted garage lol
And also all my brake stuff came so spent an hour on the lines (Then engine can be dropped in w00p)

Well happy after today, Darren done a really god job and is certainly a dab hand with the spray gun and filler work!
Firstly we masked off all the openings:
Whilst Darren was sorting and filling and smoothing the rear quater, i went over the car with P400 and scotch to give it its final key:
Rear quater in perfect shape:
Into the "spray booth" and panel wiped:
Painting began:
Shell finished, and todays work finished:
Next week all the panels will be done, then i can build it all back up to form a car again W0000P!
