right guys heres another little update of what we got up to this weekend.

when we finished welding the bottom wing repair panel we had made we
filled the wings and the tailgate panels and gave it all a couple of good
coats of high build primer.







next we redone a previous repair that we had done to the rear side panel stiffener. we redone it
because we wernt happy with how the previous one turned out.



after this with us and a couple of extra bods, we turned the pickup on its side to get ready to
stonechip the underneath. my dad mixed up white and black stonechip so that when the body colour
has been spayed on that when it gets chipped or scratched underneath you dont see different colours.









once the stone chip had cured we got the paint mixed up and prepared to paint.
(weve gone for an early 1960s speedwell blue!)









last thing we done this weekend is to sort out our best front and rear subframes and tailgate which
are off to be shotblasted. were aiming to do a bit in the week so will try and update as we go.
