Been busy today.
finished polishing that bmw then took the fuel tank out the corsa and relocated it to the passenger footwell for now, had to rerun the fuel lines through the bulkhead. i need the car running because to get in eds workshop you have to go up a slope and if im on my own i can't get it in and out to get other cars in.
Then i got excited with the air chisel and cut the boot floor out as i couldn't be bothered to scrape the sound deadening off, only joking, something a bit different is going in place of it( no its not an engine)
Then i cut the drivers sill off
everything went to plan except on the sill there was about 50 million hidden spot welds, bit of a pain.
all good though

this law is actually very stupid i think!

even though ur not ment to we still use them at work sometimes but they are just so fooking loud! and its normally on on cars that are bent to fook so we cant drill the spot welds out!

also tom did u take all the stone chip off before u drilled the spot welds out cos that shows them all out pretty easy when its bare metal!

yeah they are illegal in our workshop aswell coz of the massive decibel level, had my ear defenders on so i was ok.

yeah cutting both sills off just didn't get time to cut the other off
