Thing's took a bit of a dramatic turn yesterday

I wasn't happy with the way the shape was turning out so I cut the roof back off & chopped it in half down the middle (Front to Back)

If anyone tells you you can do a decent sized chop without widening the roof, tell em it's all bollocks The shape just didn't look right. it seemed to flatten the roof too much as it was stretched from side to side

Not to worry tho. I've got the drivers side of the car done now & it looks shit loads better

Was close to calling the scrap man again
