First Build - Bodywork images

NB. Most recent photos are at the bottom.

the car when we first bought it after cutting out the rusty rear guards after doing a bit of stripping on the rear... we then decided to do the whole car! notice the new sheet metal in the rear guards front guards off and body rubbed back
starting bogwork on the rear guards close up of the rear guard removing the exhaust the rear of the car almost finished - a lot straighter than when we started!
the engine bay after stripping the hard way with paint stripper and sandpaper... engine bay after stripping the EASY way - take it to a sandblaster! got the front sandblasted too Andrew cutting off the battery mount ...
... then smoothing it over priming the bonnet side view after the car after priming - a very similar colour to the paint colour actually the rear after priming - we could finally see the results of all our hard work in this area :)
finally in the paint shop getting painted in 2-pack Nissan Classic White putting it all back together ... ... it took a fair while .... .... the end result is great though!
