So I got the rear panels filled and sanded down now, and have put 2nd coat on front panels, o/s and tailgate.
I have also put a repair panel in on the bottom skirt to the rear, and glassed it and skimmed.
Just need to trim the seams back in. Slowly getting there with her.

Do you restore cars for people as a living?

Its my friends unit. We all share the space.
Its a collaboration of VDubbers pride and joys. We use the space to work on them in cold months, and somewhere to meet up regularly.

Hopefully,
Got a bit of an oil leak to look at, but am aiming for the next 1-2 weeks to be driving it daily.
Might put new brushes in alty too.
