Seriously girls pull yer tights up, this is far from a restoration, it's a lovely old van being made rock solid, presentable and most of all... Saved! Anyone who knows bodywork will agree 90% of filler ends up on the floor again, this is us being over fussy on this lol not one thing on this van is bodged... Anyways I've priming to do lol Well said from one body guy to another as you were

the work that is being done is getting to to a very high standard , if it had been done right in the first place it wouldn t need , done now . but if they did nt save it , or others on here we would have nothing to look at . its great to watch other people work and compare what they do to what i do . and the welding is done to a very high standard, as stated before we have goverment test centres , not back st garages . and the test centre s are very strict , that s why we have such good cars lol ,any car being saved is a bonus , HATS OFF TO GOOD WORK

Not sure about 90% of the filler ending up as dust on the floor, for me I would say 50% ends up covering me, 30% settles into every awkward to clean location and the rest will stay airborne until you want to paint so you end up wetting everything down to trap it;)
