Here are a few pictures of my MK2 project. Coming along slowly, as usual, needed more work than I thought when I bought it, but I'm determined to get all the rot out of it. Hoping to eventually resurrect it as a Historic Rally Spec. 2.0L Pinto.(Future proofed in case I ever have the money to upgrade to full BDG Grp4 spec.)
Up to now, it's had :-
complete front end (inner wings, chassis rails, front panel)
O/S centre chassis rail
O/S & N/S bonnet hinge panels
O/S & N/S floor halves and sills
As you can see, it's now strong enough to be mounted on a spit, which should make things easier to progress. Panels for all round the lower rear end due to arrive on Friday.
All been done using a Portamig 185, courtesy of Steve @ Weldequip. I find I am getting on better using 0.8mm wire, than when I tried the 0.6mm!
