Weekend of cutting, grinding, welding, body filler and sanding, sanding, sanding, welder repairs and confusion.
After carefully securing new panel onto old body, to single mindedly focus on all attention on welding… and the car immediately starts melting at the first sign of heat! Lead filler from previous repairs… and so the scope creep continues!

Sort of proud at how committed I am to improving previous poor repairs, despite the time pressure. So much for “no emotional attachment”, but at least this project is already significantly improved from the state I received it!
