Default Plugs.

So...having had an interest in fabrication, I have been attempting to create panels for my own projects.
Made a few mistakes...but found it to be mostly rewarding.

Circumstances have left my better half and myself waiting on relocating, house contents mostly packed/boxed for last two years, move in progress for five.

Decided to purchase Spitfire as a base car.
Changed suspension.
Used the Triumph 2.5 S, wanted re designed front grill, quarter panels, none available, phoned local shop, they said I'd need a plug.
Made one from filler/ re claimed wood, took to another GRP company, who persuaded me to give fiber glassing ago, and offered me employment...yay.
Molded plugs, gave quater panels deep draught, took all day to release,
still....once fitted took car to a company who offered contract..in principle...subject to alterations, clearance related.



Decided to carry on experimenting, made a roof:



Junked, but kept some panels, built again, wooden skeleton, for rough idea of lines, templates across.
