Thanks for all the welcomes,
Been to halfords today and spent about £20 on filler and sandpaper (and a bottle of methalated spirit). Got some wheels on the way, They're pretty battered but me and my bro are gonna get them polished right up. I'd like to get the car halfway decent by the summer so i can get to a few shows and be happy. I want to keep the body completely standard, Just remove side strips. Then i'm gonna lower it to the floor - and the wheels are going to be somthing special.
