Evening All! Here's another update.. Part 1
Had a slight issue whilst welding the top dash rail panel in, as my gauge is broken on my reg to tell me how much gas i have left is smashed (you can see whats coming) i plug welded the panel in, near the end, it wouldnt weld, turned the welder off, pulled the trigger, only a tiny hiss, NO GAS!! Un clamped it and the panel fell off, gas got low and made a huge issue with strength so all needs griding down and drill the holes AGAIN!
Here some pictures of recent work..
CHOP!
Ready for butt welding
Tacked
New Heritage Scuttle

You were unlucky with the regulator and gas Dan but you are making good progress. And an early happy 18th.

Good to see you moving on Dan. Some nice repairs there. Will be interested to see you get the front end fitted. I'm leaving mine a wee while.

Hi, Bit of a delay in the update, with work etc but I now have some more gas, reg to repair mine, and some new goodies which I got for my birthday but you will see them in the update tomorrow evening.
Here is one of my alloys which im refurbishing, this has all its colour coats, just needs final flatting a a few coats of Heavy Duty PU Lacquer to protect it, Only 3 more to go then its on with the A539's
Also, a brilliant birthday card I got..
Thanks for all the comments
