neilb Posted 16March, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 16March, 2019 well time for an update, i have been making the 1/4 panel for the L/H side. i made the R/H side in two pieces (top + bottom), but ever trying to be better i decided to have a go at making this one in 1 piece. so obviously now i have done this in 1 piece i will have to re-make the other side in 1 piece lol thanks for watching MFX, hugh, Peter John and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilb Posted 11May, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 11May, 2019 carrying on with this project, it was time to make a windscreen panel to convert this bt6 to the pre-a i can't afford lol, so after the first attempt i started another, following tradition i had a go at making it in one piece. only a little fettling to finish and put the indents for the wiper spindles (i'll do that when the dash is made) then tip the edges for the door gaps. thanks for watching 81SC, MFX, GC9911 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

neilb Posted 30July, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 30July, 2019 not much to report really as i have been building a tube bender for an up coming task... pretty much where we are up to, i have cleaned up the front section in the recess and trimmed the top edge down, trimmed up the lower section of the guard, ready for tig welding together thanks for watching rafikdous and P-Kay 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilb Posted 9October, 2019 Author Report Share Posted 9October, 2019 little bit of an update, i made another nose section. the one pictured above is now wall art or bin filler, which ever the case may be. i made the replacement as both sides together, i had this sitting on the buck i have and i have made the top section on the left side and also the side section. i started on the right hand side today which is exciting lol. dino, it was a few weeks ago now but great to meet you, hope you have had some more progress pics of your coupe since i saw you last SteveF, Troubleshooter, LeeM and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
