Got the axle all plumbed in again today and stripped the rollcage down to bare metal.



I could do with some 'bondo' (plastic based filler) to tidy the cage up a bit due to some battle scars/dents from the previous owner. Any suggestions of makes of bondo?

Well, a lot of chopping and welding later and the cage is now fully installed and awaiting its second coat of POR15:

Thanks! Do it! Cheap as chips motoring really unless you accumulate loads of spare parts like me! Have a look on Locostbuilders.co.uk, there are always 'almost complete' projects for sale, higher spec than mine.
In saying that, I'm eyeing up my next car, so if this is for sale, I'll let you know
