Thursday - Part 3:
Finished off fitting the panel on the driver's side.
( You can just about see where the bottom of the panel has been hammered in to match the contours. )
Then cleaned all the surfaces before mixing up some bonding paste for the passenger side panel.
Not easy to get a decent photo, but the "teeth" have now been entombed.
Managed to extract the last 100ml from the tin…
To at least make a start on the driver's side panel.
Thankfully, a new tin arrived yesterday, so my 3rd round of bonding paste finished off the job.
Which means that the
Moon Rover and body shell are now completely sealed together with no gaps.
This join still needs to be tidied up at the front half of the car (plus the panels I did today are clearly not finished either).

The next steps will be to seal these panels in from the "inside" via the cockpit and boot areas.
But that means removing all the covers and I didn't want to push my luck with the clouds gathering overhead.
So that is all for today and until next time, take care, Paul.
