Some shed time

With the MOT out of the way again I set about a few tidying up jobs on the 2000. Around the rear wheel arches, the old underseal has been knocked/peeled off, next job is to get it in primer before giving it a coat of stone chip and a top coat of red to match. The original paint is in surprisingly good condition, but is quite thin.



While waiting for that paint to cure, work has re-started on the front passenger wing. I pulled some dents out and removed some rotten metal from the arches a couple of years ago, but never got round to giving it a top coat.





Up in the wheel arch I could see a bit of rust bubling up



Which cleaned up to look a bit like this



So there's going to be a bit more cutting before some fresh metal goes in.
After the new metal went in it was finished with seam sealant and a few coats of paint, yes I know it is not the right colour, but it is under the carpet.
