Solid Saturday:
First job of the day was to get some Kurust on any exposed bits of metal from the the bonnet hoop...
And the bonnet hinges.
Then it took two sessions to get some normal body filler around the bonnet opening.
A small batch of fibreglass filler covered a small gap next to the hinge mounts on both sides.
Then it was time to get some high build primer on the back edge of the bonnet.
Note: I think you can see the HUGE drip I left on one of the lock holes from space.
I also did a couple of test patches on the inside of the bonnet too.
If you look closely at the photo above, you will see the various areas that need another coat of etch primer.
I cut a wire coat hanger in half to hang up the headlight rims so I could do both edges at the same time.
The final area for some high build primer was the boot lid.
I applied some finishing putty to the areas around the rear lights.
End of Part 1…
