I would love to read the rest of the thread, but when I click the next numbered page or even the > arrow, it just opens the same page again. Anyone else get it to work correctly?

It's lucky that they had an original to use for patterns and such! I assume they're going to make the front end correctly again too?

I am always so impressed to see people do so much with so little!

There is a show on TV occasionally called "Bangladesh Bangers" or some such, where they rebuild a mundane car into a fantastical custom creation - the real inspiration comes from watching 20 guys descend on the car using old hacksaw blades to scrape the old paint off! Or seeing 6 guys grab a 4X4 and some ropes to lift the engine out.

The first part of page 1 and pictures is repeated at the top of all the next pages but if you continue to scroll down on each one, there are new posts and pictures.

I also thought of "Bangladesh Bangers" also shown here on UK TV!

The boot lid reconstruction on page 6 was amazing. That Zahid guy really is the Magician.

Thanks Mab01uk!

Hope he continues to update it as he goes along. I wonder what they do for body filler?
