Hilda's Extreme Makeover

[Emu]

Here's a shot of the left sill at the end of Sarge's day s work.

I may point out Kiwi bird that you have a hide complaining about the nasty weather that you claim has slowed you down over there.
You may not know, but while Sarge was working today a light sirrus cloud was reported over the Gold Coast at about 2.35pm. Hundreds of people reported seeing it!
Not only that...... our Sarge and Kev worked under conditions where the temperature hovered around 22 to 24 degrees all day. Talk about inclement. It was a bugger of a day!

[Emu]

One of the miracles of this project is the adoption of Hilda by a guard-possum called "Killer"
Kev, the painter, claims its a dog but Sarge and I are not buying that!

You judge for yourselves.

       I have heard that it's going to be 27 degree's today any chance of an early mark, so as I can get to the beach for a swim and cool off a bit.  ;D
        Just disregard this if those naste clouds return.

Cheers
Sarge  ;)

making good progress guys, and  a nice job of it too Sarge!

after fitting up a dog leg inner and outer on Sunday, I can only sympathise with the plight of you two birds.

slowly the bird builds its nest hey.

Cheers

Inspiring stuff, Emu & Sarge.   :)

The end product will be brilliant - and worth a mint.

Why thank you Martin for those kind word. I would also like to thank everybody esle who has posted here with word of insperation. Your kindness & well wishes have not gone un-noticed. :)

As for the remarks from one short big nosed bird. :P

Cheers
Sarge

P.S all welding & rust work will be finished by weeks end.

Emu,
Carefull that "Killer" looks like a cross between a possum & a sheep. The sort of thing that breeds in NZ - might be a Kiwi spy 8)

Did the possum come with the car. Or is it to attack KIWI invaders.

[Emu]

Slim,

"Killer"  just crept out of the trees and adopted "Hilda"

Don't be deceived, he's not called Killer for nothing, if a Kiwi somehow ended up  near Hilda it'd be decimated in a second!

Actually, our famous Kiwi is visiting here in a few weeks.... I may test "killer's" reaction time on him. Apparently he is a bit larger than your standard Kiwi, still..... no match for the guard possum I suspect.

[-KIWI-]

 ;)looks more like a hairy dog turd and about the same size too  ;) no way it is a nz hybrid far too fugly for that

i see a SMALL amount of progress but i also see a LARGE amount of work still to be done



oh by the way

[shadow=red,left,300]GO THE MIGHTY ALL BLACKS [/shadow]

[Sarge]

Kiwi
       You know I was thinking about putting in a bit of overtime, just so when you came over[shadow=red,left,300]Emu the O Mighty one [/shadow] could take you out & show you the site's. Now after that comment I am thinking
           Bird with short legs does not have much to wear out, so should not walk around to much.
          So I take it your not going far when you get here. ;D

Cheers
Sarge

emu & sarge     you guys have been going extremely well with hilda but we havent seen progress pics for a few days...hope your not slacking off just because the rust is moving faster than kiwi on his car.  BUT in kiwis defence...i gotta say...it must be awkward to have to stand on a ladder to rub back the top of the guards :P
   cheers   trev

[Sarge]

Trev
        Things are moving along just nicely, & more pics are comeing. Only the right hand inner sill & small piece of rear Left floor to go. Then a bit of rubbing & a bit of piant then Hilda can go back together.  ;)

Regards
Sarge
