half took one of the inner wings off.
its abit of a *woman of ill repute* as half of it is rusty, so i cant see the welds.
going to go down and get the spot lights out later and do abit more

and advice on locating spot welds that are covered in rust and gunk?

[tedmcedd]

sometimes if you just run over the top with a grinder it picks out the high and low spots...

my girlfriend has a designer

just ignore all the people who have been moning at you for changing things
who cares what the car is worth, keep it forever then youll never care

P.s. Jack, i can't wait neather!!

[Deathrow]

You think my project makes yours look easy! I have to disagree! Yours makes mine look like a walk in the park.

Good on you for taking it on .

[joe_m]

. well yours is a rusty iccle mini!! mines not -too- bad. just needs a few bits welding. . . but i need to learn to weld!! bolting doors on and putting engines in is all easy stuff. . .
Cheers mate

Next thing is get myself some welding done. I am going to replace the back half of the roof. A. there is holes all over it B. there is a big F-off dent in it . . so no point in patching. anyhoo. Im off for some telly. night!
