Finally got around to doing some work on the mk1. I've been dreading drilling out all the spot welds from the Donor nose to remove the inner fenders. After I got stuck into the job it was actually enjoyable.
Used a spot weld drill to remove the spot welds.

Now to clean and trim everything for a good fit and then I can start welding it all back together.
