here´s what happens in the last weeks..
finished the cargo door area..
and then we started with the front..
first i cleaned up all the mess
now it looks like this
after doing this.. we stared with the a pillars.. both needed to be changed
then we needed to fix the mess with the front clearance
it wasn´t easy but we did it..
now the door matches and we could start to restore the front..
unfortunately we had to cut the front.. because it was more damaged then it first looked like
this is how it looks now.. finishing it on monday..
next step.. dog leggs, hurray _________________ GermanRestoKommando
