Ever considered building a blasting cabinet? I have built one. it is agricultural but works OK.

Is there anything you don't have?? lol.

I can't remember if i mentioned this before or not but i bought a replacement rear left hand door. The old one was pretty screwed. I thought series 1 and 2 were the same apart from the side strips. I just noticed a small difference with the series 2 door that i bought. Just thought I'd mention it :cool:

The brown (s1) has three gaps in it while the s2 has no gaps.

Yes a rust free 35 55 hardtop and a AE82 twinky. :cool:

Good work there Johno! You are really doing a great job with what you've got. Another fact for you. I had to replace the rear rh window winder assembly on my series 1 Ae82 hatch, so I bought one out of a series 2 hatch and it fitted and bolted up to the inside of the door fine, but the channel in which the glass sits in differs from the series 1, so it turned out be no use to me in the end as the glass and channel could not be pursueded to fit.

SHIT!! :)

I bought the door, came with glass but no window winder assembly. I might be able to swap everything across but i'll just have to see. Thanks :wink: :cool:

John I have series 2 windows and channels in my series 1 seca.

Here is one big dent i have to fix.

 

 

There is about 4 of these dents on every door :P

 

 

 

 

Still have to sand them and fill the small dents

I'm still struggling to see the diffs between the series one and two doors. Can you edit the pic and circle the area??

The corner vents on the bottom rear of the door.
