30 Aug
Removed R/R window no rust. Cleaned up front side and rear window frames of sealant all frames are clean at this stage. Will need to replace all window rubbers I am wanting to retain standard glass at this stage of the build as I am wanting to be able to use this car on the road.
removed front suspension and cross member. There are a lot of mismatched bolts so I will replace with new ones.
Coss member has been reinforced so will retain it at this stage. I will get everything stripped and powdercoated before reinstallation.
