What you will find here: Intended to display minor modifications to my Westfield SEi, this blog now witnesses the two year rebuild (and more) after a major crash in October 2011. Have fun and feel free to add a comment at the end of any post.

Turning point

Impact was on the left side (driver's side) and the body panel has been damaged severely. First thing to do was to draw a pattern for the exhaust manifold hole.
Mounting it one last time for measuring.
Drawed a line and ...
... cut !
Bad souvenirs ... GOOD BYE!!! 
(Well not yet, I will keep it as a pattern for the new panel.)
Next step is to fold the panel inwards and build an outlet for the hot air.
Paper pattern together with the damaged part will help to draw and cut the new panel. 1mm aluminium sheet already in stock ...
Cheers.
