Heat doesn't worry me too much. I mean, i went through 2 litres of water.. But it's ok. Better than working in the freeeeeeezing cold. I'll be glad when it's back to the mechanical stuff, though..

Really good, dude.. It didn't seem to worry it at all, really.

Thanks, man.

I did some more sanding today and a bit of priming.. Just to get a surface coat on the bare metal where I wasn't working.. Don't want it rusting..

I hate bodywork.. I don't have any tooling for it so i'm blocking it all by hand and it's hard work in this heat! hahaha.
