Old ford .... =rust!

 

Small bubble on bonnet turned into a nice hole, here are some pictures of it being repaired.

 

 

Considering its from a rattle can and just supposed to be a bodge until I find a new bonnet and get it sprayed properly its turned out pretty good!

 

Just another 3 holes to sort...

Mate, is there an old ford out there that isn't 90% filler and rattle can paint job??!! Been working on a 2 door mk3 tina, supposed to have been a solid car, was going to drop a 2.8 in it, wasn't quite that solid..

I would like a mk3 capri, i just couldn't live with OSF's tendency to turn into a large pile of dust if you look at them funny!

Surprising how much more confident you get with car body work after owning an old ford.

 

Im an ex XR2 man myself...

Indeed, body work... fun.

 

I used to really impatient when painting and it would turn out crap becuase of it, I'm finally taking my time now so its looking alot better.

You were right not to believe as I've just unearthed more holes, small but none the less they are there.
