Sorry for the lack of updates but I have now returned to Saudi for work after a month back in the UK of which, 2 weeks were self isolation post travel
Right so...
Managed to get the car rolling over on the rotisserie with some advice from Joe (many thanks mate) and then had to make a set of rolling dollies for the car to go to blasting as John from Bodyshell-Restoration likes to use his own (which is fair enough)
So the car was loaded up on my mates flat bed and ready to be taken up to John.
Half way through blasting, I had the phone call that no-one wants to hear. "Hi Liam, John here... So I've got half way through blasting the car and this car is in terrible shape. Someone has tried to hide a multitude of sins/bad workmanship by the looks of it. It ALMOST looks like the car is a cut and shut. Do you want me to keep going and do it all?"
Ah feck... "Is it really that bad? Yeah sod it, you've done half of it, may as-well finish it off and see what lies beneath."
So fast forward 2 weeks and the car is ready to be collected.
I hope you lot are sitting down whilst reading this... I've never seen anything like it.
Looks fairly normal right??? WRONG!!!
