  1. I want some garage space. Fed up with working on a soggy gravel drive. :-X

    Nice work on the chassis repairs BTW. 8)
     
  2. I've just had to take on an extra unit so I can do more stuff.

    Going to build a shot blasting room as I have just got a powder coating oven ;D
     
  3. Hi,

    New member here and my first post.
    I need to repair some areas in my 79 panel that have rotted out from water damage through the vents.

    I was wondering when you made the repair sections as in the attached photo, did you roll the new panel at all to give it the slight curvature or did you simple rely on it taking on the curve from the existing panel
