| Gutted!! I hoped joker67 way pulling my leg, but sadly not!! All my hard work at the weekend has been wasted!! I got there to find that the froint panel I so carefully drilled out to save was like this:   The nice repair to the inner wheel well was like this:    and the inner wing front was like this!  The near side that Ihadnt started was looking like this!!  It's going to take me ages to get back where I was!! I felt sick when I saw it. | |

| Yeah!! lol I wish my bonnet was, it doesnt fit anyway!! It might have been an advantage!! lol I could have tried to get him to cough up for another one!!.
luckly, joker was a very good panel beater and thinks he can get most of it back out!! I just feel like Im banging my head against a brick wall. I was so proud of what I did last weekend, now I have to start again!! | |

| Did a little on the bug the other night, in as much as choping out the near side bottom door pillar out, and preping for a hooky panel. Just needs to be wielded in now.   I also felt our unit was missing something, and as I am waiting for panels to carry out the repairs (and some bits from delboy!! hint hint)) lol, I thought I would be industrious. So I built this!!   | |

| I was always under the impression that near side refered to the drivers side and off side refered to the passenger side, rather than curb side orientation!  | |

| Joker 67 the legend!
Me and Shorty (well Shorty) got the door pillar in tonight. No pics yet as I forgot the camera, and we have a few more bits to do tidying up. I hoping to get my replacement front panel this week, so starting to crack on again. | |
