You must be pretty chuffed with that !

How did you get the seam sealant so straight ?

BTW. The front Syncro badge is too high :)

Its not all that straight ! It took a whole day to do the sealer. probably one of the hardest parts of the job. It does look really good and yes I am chuffed with it. I wont be in a hurry to do another though :lol:

That looks really nice Pete, great colour. The welding work is really neat, looks like you managed to keep the distortion under control!

What type of sealer did you use and how was it applied?

Looks tasty indeed

You only need two tools in life - WD-40 and Duct Tape; If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40. If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.
