forgot to mention front is fooked as u can tell will be grinding that out sum time this week hopefully, got a new apron and gonna have to fab a new front crash bar, also stripped the paint off the rear panel which was full of filler and little rust spots, did a bit of priming and filling earlier on the top as it doesn't need any welding, the bottom is a different story tho lol, going to purchase a welder sum time this week anybody got any recomendations, iv got an arc welder but its arse
