Hello again all...

 

been a while how ever progress has been slow... due to holidays in Florida,Orlando..New Jobs.. New Road Car.. And a new Megane Sport Race Car...

 

how ever spent the last few weeks starting back working on the cooper,

(mainly because on 2 weeks christmas holidays)

 

started to strip the door and lightly blast the bottom of the door frames!.. drivers door bottom so decided to get a replacement pannel and also decided to go for genuine door skins after hearing some storys about copy door skins!

 

also been prepping the enigne bay!
