Just finished the welding on the body. Just the wings left to do now and it's ready to prep to paint. Here's a pic of the back of the body I just done

Cheers, going to start the wings tomorrow. Any one know of any arches that would look sort of original.

Hi, nearly got the main body finished now, just need to rub down and spray. Heres a few pics to show progress. It all takes to long when your doing it an hour or two at a time. Depressing.

I done a "professional" off road driving course through work for this bad weather that hasn't happened yet. I Couldn't believe where a ranger would go with road tires, i want to see what this little Suzuki will do now lol

One of the photos shows a patch with the colour I'm going to paint it. Blue.

It's hammerite smooth blue. That bit I done came from a aerosol. Will spray it tidy with the compressor when it's ready. I done a trailer not so long ago and it looked good so I thought why not lol. Im hoping it will come together quite quick once it's sprayed.

Yea it is. It wasn't to bad there was a hole top drivers side under the rubber and that was it. The pillars both sides where bad. I done a bit more yesterday. Bottom painted and undersealed. Just a rub down and then spray. Chassis next, it's solid so it just needs cleaning and painting and a few mods. Oh and lots of new bits.
