Bodge jobs. Bog straight over big rust holes. Found them in both front guards, the doors, sill panels and rear quarters. So pretty much everywhere.

From what i thought was going to be a quick job, sure as hell isnt now... :( *sigh*

Tmrw im cleaning front wheel wells, spraying them black and possibly getting the engine bay in undercoat..

ok. after having a dummy spit, i went out this morning and got stuck in. Cleaned up the inner guard and sprayed it in killrust enamel. theres a rust hole in bottom right, which i will cut out and weld up tonight hopefully.

Seeing this definatly bumps moral up after staring at rust all the time
