Heater valve

Heater valve finally started leaking this week so a straight forward job of removing the matrix and swapped for a new one. I took the opportunity to flush out the matrix with a weak caustic solution. Good water flow now and a substantial amount heat being blown into the car.
 

Front door repairs

All welded, skimmed with fine surface filler, seams sealed with flexible PU sealer and first coat of 2k etch primer, still needs a bit of work but going on the car to try the fit.

Inside of door now painted and waxoiled, started to build up locks, window regulator, trims and seals etc.
Very pleased with the paint finish.

Front door repairs

Not all repair panels are available to weld in, I had to make these to repair the back edge near the door lock.
