well I did anyway -
Sooooo I have now reduced the free flow boot ventilation to zero(ish) - i.e. the back end is all welded up now....
Fixed the right-hand A pillar lower hinge plate with a rather nifty butt welded repair section - even she who ignores the car thought it looked good...
Finally - three years after finding the left-hand wind screen corner was a bit dodgy it is now patched (still a little dodgy - but its 99% solid zinc coated metal and the odd spotty weld)
ummm that's it really - another five hours in the shed and my list of things to patch prior to the rollcage getting done is down to one little bit of the dash panel that is currently hiding behind the dash tube... will get at that when the current roll structure is out (hopefully the car does not bend in half.....!)
Next mission is to get the welds all finished and filled/primed - the old cage out and dolly made to trundle the little pest around on (the car......) so its going to be noisy for a while - my in-laws will be happy to se the back of me after that....
Oh and the quick rack arrived - 6 tooth pinion vs. the std 5 tooth = @ 20% reduction or there abouts (half a turn)
New Shocks are in Transit - watch this space
