He's probably just chasing out the thread in the rivinut.

Morning mate, aye, i guess he was clearing the paint out. Wasn't sure if the T25 originally had electric mirrors or not.

well nearly. first dont ever use rivnuts for this job , theyre not right for it.
yep i welded a spacer and nut to the rear,and merely cleaning out the paint from the threads,

Well
mirrors now fitted , wired though and secured to doors

got some hedex extra on the job tonight
busy fitting up the filler area,

the smudging and dulling of the paintwork is the terosan that sprayerd on before adding the filler shroud/ flaps etc,


as the doors had all the rubbers etc removed prior to painting we decided to do the door insides as well , red is such a colour for fading that the fresh exterior really showed the insides up , and so every time youd have opened a door youd have noticed it and it would bug you I guarantee it.

so now the door is done save for the side plank bit

nother tablet..
both door handles had shown signs of an attempt (gentle feeble one) to get in ,so slight repair to the door around the rear of the lock and a s/hand seal fitted

this is the underside of the os step done sealed and nice shiny dynaxed

and this is the rear

Great work Mickey. I'm hoping the rain stops, and the forecast is right that the next couple of days will be sunny, as I can then put my new Karcher to the test, and clean out the wheel arches. Then when completely dry, I can set about undersealing, and protecting too.
