Put the grinder down before you do something bad
Used my dremel and a cutting disk to remove some of the standard bulkhead so the front triangulation can go straight to the strut top.Originally Posted by jonlem

Any chance it won't have a 65mm hole to put a 40mm cage through this time ?
There is a trick to it and it doesn't involve a hole saw lmao

Then got busy with the spot weld drill bit and the funking grinder:
I am now officially sick of drilling spot welds and removing tar ****.
Back in the scene
Does the tar mat really weigh that much?
I'm louder than gods own revolver and twice as shiney.
Over 4 kilos in a nova iirc, I was sad enough to weigh the bag of crap I removed from my nova lmao
jesus remind me never to remove that black sticky crap
good going rick nice clean shell u got there keep it coming.
Rick has actually done it the hard way by the looks of it, if you gently heat an area and use a paint scaper to get under it then gently heat an inch or so forward of the scraper you can remove it in massive sections without it leaving as much behind as his did.
Tried both ways, for some reason the stuff just does not want to come off!
It gets easier on older cars, mut be the time it has to harden and the road flex on chasis.
I used to build grasstrack mini's and you could tap it with an old chisel and it all used to pop off!!!
Just had this delivered:

Shexy seats.
When I die, I want to go peacefully like my Grandfather did, in his sleep -- not screaming, like the passengers in his car.
Started with this pile of wires earlier and began thinning it out:
Left it like this earlier on, about 60% thinned out:
And this is what i had removed:
how much was the seat rick?
£300, not bad at all really.
Polycarbonate windows now ordered, gone for bronze this time.
Floor clean up has been started, gonna take a while as its a fecking terrible job.
Christ thats a lot of wire thats been cut out.
