That sounds easy enough 😀 I got some professional wind screen mastic from my local Norauto (we know the main mechanic there and they use this to fit wind screens- he had one that has a sell by date this month 😀 )

I have now painted the floors, trim rope grooves and most surfaces with my Restom Rust converter. Even though it is not rusty it turns nice black. That will be ready tomorrow to put on the joint seal around every joint I can find – then I will go ahead with the smooth Hammerite which I just bought a tin of.

I had to weld the rear seat area where there were small cracks in all 4 corners – too many passengers in the back at one time I think.

I also made a start on the woodwork – have made up new side strips between the doors. Just need to sand the edges and varnish for a little more protection.

Enough for today though, it is getting cold now and my space heater is smoking me out – something wrong with it (anyone know how to fix these)
