Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

didn't do much sanding or filling today but a days worth of posting wouldn't be complete without at least one pic of the seats emoticon

Image

Alex's plan for the day was to get a load more welding done and clean up the welding that was done on Wednesday night

Image

my job today was to strip the paint from here

Image

and in here :eek:

Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

copious amounts of paint stripper were prodded through the gaps

Image

Alex was busy grinding back his welds (please note, most mere mortals should wear some kind of face protection, Al seems to have a spark proof face :lolemoticon

Image

whilst GT Rich (father of one) dropped in and made a start cleaning all the fiddly nuts and bolts to go to the zinc platers

Image

organised or what emoticon

Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

Alex continued to finish off welding the rear quarter panel into place

Image

GT Rich continued to clean up bits, here in the mini parts washer

Image

and I kept slapping more stripper on

Re: The JagerBug - Club Racecar

Rear quarter looking a bit neater

Image

be warned! this has to be the nastiest, fiddliest, smelliest job we've encountered so far!

Image

at least the decklid was looking a bit lighter
