Thunderbird Bonnet Rot - PedalBox Episode 34 | Fleet
Channel: PedalBox
Date: 2020-01-13

We started this episode in AUGUST on the hottest day of the year working on the Thunderbird, this time to stop the rot ebfore Winter (which we mostly did). The car cover we had was pretty poor and let a lot fo water seep through so as well as getting a new one, the priority was to seal the bonnet and prevent worsening of the condition.

We had to get some welding done by a local shop, Carsaver Welders in Farborough as we were so snowed under to repair the underside of thee bonnet, which was completely rotten. Whats left (and will probably get done off camera) is cleaning up the underside of the bonnet, then buying a bigger compressor to get some proper undercoat and paint, which will need the whole rest of the car blocking back AND the new rear quarter panels sections fitting.
