    Smashin 'ammer! In fact you've smoshed it! Keep that heat down when welding and linishing it of and that tunnel will be sound.

      I must have summoned odin on those few goes on the hammer!
      I'll bear that in mind as you're right it'll need some finishing.

      That will be fine. I just get carried away when the welding goes well and forget quite how the heat starts building up. Creak, creak and it's warping all over the shop! @@jimbuilds

      I've done the same in the past - I just want to finish the job and get on with something else! 😀

    Takes me back a long time, I remember we put a big tunnel in a friend's Mk1, it was about 1980 when we did it, new tunnel was formed using a lamp post as a former. Amazingly the car is still around...

      That's genius! I wish I'd thought of that!

      @@jimbuilds the downside is that you look like an idiot doing it when the lamp post is right outside your house. I know in some cases people grafted tunnels in from other cars. Your project is looking good, it is easy to forget how light these cars are.
