More damages

looked underneath the car and the bad weld jobs continue. remember i had mentioned the floor pan is already rusting away? well, some genius welder decided to weld a sheet of mild steel underneath the rusting floor pan to support it!!! WTF!!! now i've gotta do MORE bodywork.

also, the engine crossmember which the engine mounts sit on, has a slight crack (about 1") on the passenger side. sad sad sad :(

things will be going slower now that i've gotta fix up the putra for the upcoming autocross/time attack series. apparently there'll be 7 rounds from GRA and 6 rounds from R3...crazy man. 13 rounds in a year! freaking cost a bomb...let's see, RM150 per round, 150 x 13 = RM1950!!!

so don't expect major milestones with the cortina mk3 project yet. but once i finish my training at Lotus Scientific, i'll be working on both cars as much as i can till uni starts.
