This Old Corolla!

here she is unloved by meself. just need time to bond. she wants to be friends first...

...and i says 'i just wanna f**k!!!!'

i found a brick around the garden and decided to make good use of it.

bang bangin away...using the brick to angle the metal out. and to smooth out some crazy spots.

apply some tape so i minimize the sanding of the whole wing. apply a little body filler. sand and spray and there is one prepared arch for some fat lippage.


took the whole day. then i did two more arches, i didnt take pics though. after MOT, then down she goes on some wide shoes. did someone say 8.5?
