The focus went to body shop.....
Posted: Mon Nov 08, 2010 10:11 pmOk so heres the storry on this one.
My Mrs brother got a 57 plate vectra SRi for a grand, yeah a grand. Jammy lil $hit
So I ended up with his focus for the price of £300, it had been keyed by some lil feckers and then a bin truck reversed in to the n/s back quarter
This is what it has been like sitting on the drive for a few months now, just got it in body shop sunday there.
I started of by sanding out all the key lines with the da.
I then sorted outthat back quarter....
Once this was sorted I went round the car with 320 paper and again with 500 paper & put another fine coat of filler on the repair on the quarter to get it in to shape, should be ready fo painting tomorrow. I am also gona be colour coding the plastic sill covers, door strips and the lower section of the rear bumper.
I will get more pics of the progress tomorrow.
