Quick update, loads of filling and sanding going on, and this is where we're up to!

 

O/S wing is just about there, only a few little pin holes to sort!

Another good couple of days at it and we'll be ready for primer!

It's hard mate, the next time I can get in there with my mate who's helping me is a months time! 

 

I'll get in there before hand and take off all the rough, so that we can pay attention to detail when he comes round!

Bodywork is always a drag, I hate it if I am honest.
