Last section of the shell all primed now, underneath the boot and under the heater channels.

Now begins the mammoth task of rubbing all the primer down and getting the panels flat. Max has been coming down the last few weeks to help out with this stage. What a trooper!

A quick dash down the workshop after work today to get the front into primer. 

I almost forgot to weld the horn mount back in after chopping it out for the baja cut! Decided to weld it in the now redundant windscreen washer bottle panel.

I’ve convinced Max to come down over the next few weekends to help rub down the primer ready for paint and raptor. She’ll hate it by the end!

Baja drivers door primed, and started stripping the boot area for some primer. I was originally planning to top coat the boot but think I’ll just paint it with raptor instead as it will suit the rugged look of the bug and save on some prep time.
