Molleur - Thanks for the tip, although I didn't see it until after I'd had a go at fixing the problem.

Slow Friday - Part 1:
I was feeling pretty drained this morning, so started off with some gentle woodwork…

As I never actually got around to adjusting my wooden tonneau cover since the steering wheel went in.





But, as I inch ever closer to paint, now was the time to sort these out.

Before:



After:



I then added some sections of foam seal that I will not be using for the bonnet lip.



So these should now keep the covers from sinking into the cockpit when it rains and avoid damaging the paint.



It then took me ages to apply some high build primer to the body shell.











The combination of hot weather outside and a painter tired on the inside made for a very messy finish.

But just seeing the body shell back in one colour, after all this effort, did seem like a big step forward.

End of Part 1…
