I hope it’s warmer in your shed than it is in mine Dave. Shivering in lockdown in SA. Do I recognise Epotec green grey etch prime?

What are u doing with Pedals Dave. Do u need to swap to a commodore or are you changing boosters. Just looking at the firewall. Nice to see some action.

Commodore pedals easier to patch everything and drill what is needed and patch once I get to it there was holes everywhere

I meant the guy before me butchered the firewall if I weld up most holes and then start again and patch paint as I go.
