Quick update

Lens making good progress :D
The front seam of the large hole & a bit on the sides is fully welded
& hammered back into position.
The strip from that to the windscreen is fully welded
& hemmered back into position.
Its all holding its shape now, so we can progress along the sides
in the next couple of nights.

The first pics is me being the Dolly Bitch.
The second, is the welded front half.
