I am being a little fussy but decided to finish it all. A few spots around the vents and top parts near the roof the paint was bridging. The drivers door had some minor blisters, could only see them in the right light. I was going to just drive it for a while and do it later, but I would rather see it all done. Here is a picture of one spots near the roof I broke off.  Cheers Glenn |

I must be missing something here, is that the before shot, before you painted the van, or are you not happy with the paint job and are doing it again?  Keith |

Hi Keith, the van was repaired and painted late last year, all but the panels that are now getting done.
Cheers Glenn

ok! I understand fully - especially if it's your main fun car! As much as it would be nice to do our van's paint and body it'll be driven for a while with it's warts and all paint and body - but - we do have another major project on the go. Look forward to meeting you and seeing your van at Orange  I might see you at Orange too Glenn, hopefully! Gary C |

That's a fairly heavy lace for the quarter panel. |

Thing of the past now and far from cost effective in the industry, the new ones are great (spot weld and pull the dent in one) and they also heat shrink at the same time. Looking forward to seeing the finished product Glenn, have enjoyed the pics so far. Cheers Ben |
