Yea, I just hadn't got round to bracing the front end up before today. In front of the gas tank you can see the angle iron bracing I fitted in, using the M12 bolts from the headlamps to secure in position. I wanted to get that done before I started cutting away what little there was of the front end.

Relocated my indicators and my horn, and then just attacked with the sawzall. Was certainly the most nerve racking cut of them all, cutting the front end off the car, but definitely looking much better now that's for sure.

Repsaw. Reciprocating saw. Saws through all

Ah, I know what a reciprocating saw is and now understand the coloquiolism thanks to the translation
