Half welded up the heater hole because my welder started spitting, and i was getting angry lol. Once its welded i'll body filler over it. Engine bays gonna look good as.
Also was at thomastown market and picked up a Weber info/guide/booklet thingo, that specify's into weber carbs for just 5 bucks. Mad score. It specify's how to tune, take apart, put together and all that.

Looks sick George! Bet you're stoked as hell dude.
Contrast is pretty dope too surprisingly.

I like those wheels the way they are. Just needs to be a bit lower. Fit bigger tyres with a white or green pin stripe and they'd look mint I reckon.

Normal filler should be fine. You can also use seam sealer but it's harder to get flat..Originally posted by GeorgeMK1 View PostByron my mates dad stole it from work for me hahaha

I decided to hop in the garage regardless of the non stop rain and freezing weather. Haha strangely enough the garage is warmer than my entire house! Ok so welded up the heater hole, and today had the journey of filling, sanding, filling, sanding, filling, sanding etc haha.
Also got a second hand parcel shelf thanks to Peter ! Its pretty good condition, but on the sides its got alot of wear. So i've decided to let my innovation fix it haha. Ill have it fixed in no time ! Thats all for today guys
