right these have been waiting for me to collect them for over a week so i went out and picked them up last night, i offered one up and it's spot on. i'm really looking forward to getting these fitted up now he did one and wasn't happy with it so he had another bash and produced two spot on skirts - all cut to length and square.

i quickly held a skirt up in the light with one hand and took a pic with the other - then the batteries died on my camera [:@]

well i took the day off work today with the aim of getting started on my skirts, after gathering all the materials and gas for the welder i started off.

i managed to get the drivers side skirt seam welded on along the side and underneath, also ground the welds down got a bit of filler on the sides and seam sealed underneath. before i finished sanding down the filler it stareted to rain so threw some primer on there and packed up.

i'm happy with the look so far even though it's rough and in mustard yellow primer, can't wait to see it all painted in white.

well hopefully they'll be done in time for no-rice and my photobucket account should be reactivated 8.11 so i can post some pics.

thanks ant Smile

gave the interior a quick clean and treated the leather, also took a few daylight pics - it's far from clean but chances are it won't be scrubbed up mint for a while yet due to the weather.

it's booked in to get a few little paint jobs done in the next few weeks.
