Bonnet on to check panel gaps for scuttle and front panel. Both A panels on.
Wow! Impressive work. I just hope mine is not that badly rusted yet!
Regards,
Ivan

With the front done, time to look at the rear. With the seam rust, there is some cutting to do.

What a way to spend a Bank Holiday! Complete dry flat followed by a wet flat using 800 paper. At 8.30am tomorrow, it will be in the paint booth having several coats of British Racing Green (HAM) applied. Will post pictures tomorrow.
