Today's main focus was clean up the Boat House. It was in one bloddy mess.I could not walk in there.The bench was somewhere under all the tools,parts and crud. Even my mom-in law asked "Is there a car under there??" I knew it was time to clean up. Now I can function properly with a clean shop.

This was done a while back but I never got to post it. We finally got a loan of torches and removed the ultra stubborn bumper brackets. Big step forward that was. We got to repair the frame and rear tail panel.

Hussar! you are back with the pics and its looking good. !thumb Thats still a hell of a lot of work to do though. I keep thinking nearly there now, with mine, until you realise just how long things take . The weeks just roll by. Good luck for getting it done but by the years end though. If you do it I will take my hat off to you. !cowboy

We spent a lot of time blending the trunk patch. It takes a lot of grinding and welding to build it up,and take it down. The tail panel patch is actually a re-inforcement that is welded to the frame rail and ties the trunk to it as well. Very solid.
