Holidays , pfft , not here
A bit more done today after a bit of running around this morning for some more materials before the shops shut for Christmas .
Started on the passengers front pillar ( sorry about the photo )
A bit of filler to clean up where i welded in the new outer sill in front of the passengers rear wheel
The passengers rear wheel arch panel , and as with the drivers side , just a skim of filler to smooth out the ripples from welding up the deluxe holes
and the enlarged wheel arches

Well , as well as working on my Towdster , i'm back into the big bus too , as i need to get it back on the road before the wifes other car drops its
guts
So i have basicully finished straightening the back sides of the main shell , i'vve found a perfect sliding door ,,,, finally , have cleaned and
striped the front end and ordered all new parts from Boris and the boys @ Vintage Vee dub for both it and the rear suspension and brakes , cleaned all
the underside painted and sealed it , and am just about to go and spend a few more hours at it .
All in all , between the two cars they keep me very busy and broke , but i suppose i wouldn't be on here if i didn't have them

Yes i have still been working on it and have made considerable progress in the last few weeks
Brakes , suspension , and basicully any running gear has been all cleaned up , reconditioned or both
My new / secondhand RUST FREE sliding door has had it's deluxe holes all welded up , a light skim of filler and now in spray putty waiting for a rub
out
And those big flat sides of the body are as they are suppose to be, FLAT & STRAIGHT
