stowmaket suffolk

well after a 7 week wait the turbo roadhog is back under cover back here is stowmaket.

to say the least as im well well pleased as my mate clive at cr panel craft done a top job and even better it only cost me £800

this included flull respray and tons of preb work as he had to plend in again all the body kit ect and remove some of the cuttering plus all other stuff to get her to this top job.

just ask miniwillie how much work there was must have took him ages .

i had couple of quotes from other people who i use and they were all in the usaul and expected £1500 plus mark.

but clive quoted £800 and if any one else except him siad that i would have said foget it as it was to cheep but he done it first time round for £600 8 years ago, but still im chuffed to bits and the modded gutter looks top notch.

the first time round i left of the side channel covers as this was a water trap and they lasted 8 years and looked as good as the day he done so decided to remove the lip round to way both panels met as this kept rusting so hopefully now that should nip thatb in the bud.

so here is the pics the bits of white you see is just compound which needs a wipe off.

its just a matter of refiiitng her with out scratching her ( now doubt there will be one or two knowing me).

hi nic the scar is fine cant hardly see it.

well the gutter now longer bends round its just flat.

clive took it back to were both panels meet as it kept rusting as the lower section bends round and made it hard to grind it clean so i wiped most of and clive finished it off.

poor old gal is 30 years old now but i had to cut away some of the lower half of the front and rear windscreen lip as they were rotten and weld in new metal and clive done a top class job to blend it in.
