The rear axle is stripped down and painted (and nothing sheared).

Keep forgetting to update this thing, but not a lot has happened so it's not really a problem.

First off I got some new bits from the Capri Club: strut top panels, rear chassis repair sections, and rear bumper brackets.

 I finished off the floor welding, so all that's left to weld, is the bits outside the car.

 Also this weekend, I stripped the rear axle down, degreased, wire brushed, primed and painted it gloss black.

 More to come soon.
