Bodywork Issues
 

Well, some of you may or may not know that I have some bodywork issues with regard to some bubbling paint work on the roof of my ZS, the area in question is the roof gutter/roof skin where it meets the windscreen.
It turns out that the windscreen was replaced at some point before it was registered (I'm the 1st owner) possibly at the factory prior to being bought by my supplying dealer.
So, I enlisted the help of K&S Coachworks (Kamal and Scott) to tackle the problem, some pics below.

So, next is to prime and paint the roof, also my grill and rear bumper getting the same treatment.
And a Bit of avertising for them!

mate that is ******* bad

and i mean real bad surprised it didnt rust through

Tim, It was nearly a new roof skin needed, but Kamal and Scott managed to save it, so there is plenty of rust cure stuff on it, so shouldn't rot anymore!, agreed it is terrible for a 4 year old car!

jeebus thats crazy for a 4 year old car

any idea how it managed to seep through the new seals

did you know it was that bad originally??

whats with the bent peice of metal on the 2nd piccy???

When the windscreen was taken out the evidence of a previous repair was seen, so either the screen wasn't bonded properly or there wasn't enough gunge to seal it, I just knew that paint on the roof was just bubbling thats all, the 2nd pic is the 'A' pillar interior trim.

ahhh right fair enough glad to see ya taking care of the zed anyways

shame as some of the MK2 Zs's seem to be quite rusty E.G. Aldons over on XPF i think i got lucky bodywork wise with mine

Shame about the small niggles at the start of ownership

That is bad. Its in good hands though.

Im probably going to get Scott to paint the MG Monty's Rear spoiler, i have heard good things from Hugh.

Sounds like youve acted just in time!

Ive got a tiny spec of rust on my roof... no bigger than a gnat. Im not too worried about that, but I need to get rid of it sooner rather than later.

Gotta hate rust though, pain in the arse.

It was looking very sorry for itself... Glad you caught it though.

another 1 :-o

was it a thing of project dive where they didnt glavanise the metal they used
