Well after 6 months and a lot of repairs to cracks, holes and bits of missing metal work, mainly around the Sill Area and the Screen Frame, which was only held on by the Paint !!!! The car is ready for paint.
We just have to let the Poly Primer "Air" Dry for a few days and then she will be Lotus Yellow again.

Looking good. Those A pillars do look scarey! Is the metal re-inforcement there?

Phil
There was metal in there but is was connected to nothing !!!
This is the problem with accepting a price from a company that quotes before stripping everything back, I think had I have given this job to anyone else these items would have been missed and just painted over.
It is true you get what you pay for !!
