Replaced the indicator bulb to a 21watt bulb

Drivers side rear light all wired

Spaghetti junction

Indicators all working at last just need to be wired into the mr2 harness



Rear lights all working

A friend in the UK sent me this over


A friend of mine bought his daughter a 106 starter car so i decided to give him a hand in changing the rear axel
Axel out

Secondf hand axel all re-done and put back in

All back in

Cheers guys cant wait to see it in primer :-) my arms are in pain from sanding only 2 weeks left of this sanding :-(

Second section skimmed


Front bonnet skimmed

As you can see the low spots wher the black is

A few low spots left

Bonnet all sprayed black ready for block sanding

Blocked sanded and re-filled the low spots

Still on section 2 a few low spots this side of the kit was the worst due to the previous owner storing them in the corner of his garage in a heap

As you can see the skim looks heave but it light as you can still see the white gel coat underneath

Bonnet coming along

The 3rs section skimmed it looks heavy but its not if you look closely you can see the white gel coat
