UPDATE FROM TONIGHT SO FAR:-
have been busy once again, more filer and smoothing they are all pretty smooth now, have rubbed down teh wavy filler on the rear 3/4 and thats good now!
just welded on the extentions to the bonnet now and skimmed with layer fo fibreglass now, just waiting for that to dry and having a break!

dad is a farmer, mum is a cook and teaches food hygene cources etc!!
non of my friends have anything to do with bodywork, not learnt from anyone really just picked it up as i gone along really! would onle say its in the last year i have become quite good!! still improving all the time, once u get to a stage improving just seems to come naturally and jobs that once took u days take hours!
