purple patch

A small update and something a bit different from body repairs now.. Also with a new Blogger enhancement it appears you can now click on any picture then view them all full screen as a slideshow,

I got the patch fixed on the C pillar and it went quite well. No problem at all really. The other side of the car isn't as bad so I need to decide whether or not to just paint it and put ths glass back in or sandblast the surface rust off.

At this stage in the build I'm not keen on getting the blaster out again due to the mess it creates. We shall see.

I have also moved onto the IRS and spent over £50 getting it shotblasted and powdercoated. Looks nice tho.
