So it's been a while since I've actually posted anything here (I didn't forget I set this up i swear).
That and it's been a while since anything has been happening to my ae86, so i'll give a rundown and provide pics at a later date.
So since that time, we've tweaked the front wings so the doors can open and close without actually catching.
The front end which has been tubed wasn't exactly put on straight or made to look good, so we've pulled it back straight and started aligning the front end better, as well as add extra bracing so the light don't bounce all over the show (was a teeside drift missile basically before i bought it).
The plan now is to mount the front and rear bumpers properly, clean the welds up on the bash bar, paint the tubing at some point, then the rest of the prep work can be done (flatted the doors and roof back ready for primer and paint)
