Had a bit of time this afternoon so I thought I'd make a start on some of the bodywork that needs doing.
Some of you may remember the trolley-damage that annoyed me a while back, during the windy weather...

So I set about stripping the interior so I could get at the back of the dent.

I used my second fav tool to remove the dent (1st being a chainsaw and not suitable for this application) a hammer. some of the paint cracked a bit so a bit of wet and dry and touch - up paint was called for and although it still needs a bit of work, I ended up with this...

After my relative success with that job, I thought I'd get some of the stone chips and rough plod-resprays tidied-up and then it was a case of wash, clay, wash again, wax and top coat. Some pics...
