Alarming


Never fear, it's only a clifford!

Another salvaged part from another car, works perfectly and will be put into the loom nice and easy.

Sideways

Previous bodge fixed (bonnet hinge) and we're sideways again - this time for some exciting shultz work. My masking tape and newspaper is at the ready!

I'm waiting for something to come up and delay it again now.

On other news, the unit is lovely and cool inside when the temperature outside is warm - hopefully it'll be the same when the 'summer' arrives.

Big Hairy Privates!



Showering pieces of sh*t!

How about we repair a rotten piece of metal with some sh*t weld and a piece of metal we randomly cut out and drilled holes in?

Excellent work.

Bollocks.

Beautiful Mock up


Nothing really needs to be said, inspiring.

Naked

Finally - you can see some progress, from maroon to.... bare metal!

Next weekend should see us putting the Shultz on the underside.

Then doing the final preparation to the bodywork and then we will be ready for our first coat of primer!

The war of the classics

Managed to get a fair bit done ready to put the valance on, couple of tiny things to do and to dress the welds and we are done on the shell. Unfortunately our Land Rover (Suetonius) has decided that it's time to break his gearbox, so the time we had to spend on Mutley will be put into that to get him back on the road as he is our main car at the moment.

2008 - The year of the Mutley

Deep breathe.

We finally have managed to get some time to work on Mutley!

Today I un-skinned my doors ready for re-skinning when I get the skins tomorrow at Bingley whilst Chris cleaned the underneath of the boot floor which was thick with waxoyl and crap!
Hopefully during the week we'll get the little tiny strip along the floor finished and then shultz and put the rear valance on!

Found out that we'll be moving in a few months to a wind proof building - so spraying will hold off until that time!
