Paint stripper, elbow grease and more tinworm terrorism

Had an hour or so in the garage and decided to expose some of the factory panel junctions ready for removal and replacement with new metal.

I used some chemical paint stripper, a scraper and a steel brush along with a large jar of good old fashioned elbow grease.

It's much easier than a bastard-wheel on a grinder, gets into all the tight spots and lets you see exactly where to remove spot-welds & seam welds etc. ready for fitting new panels.

Why do later bugs have so much sodding seam sealer in all the nooks and crannies? it's not like it ever actually worked - just gave hungry tinworms a nice cosy place to set up home.
There's a small tinworm town right there look!

Hopefully the seam sealer I'll be using works better then the old stuff....
Anyway, with the spot and seam welds visible it'll be a piece of piss to accurately remove the heater channels and bulkheads.
Sweet.
