Re: subframes - paint or powder
Because this is ireland the quotes to dip/blast and powdercost were gouging.
So its eastwood paints. Front is ready to go in paint this week. 1/3rd of the cost. I suppose its 50 years old and in good nik. Proper paint job and she will be fine.

Welder lined up and reasonably reasonable. Plan is to get the main panels...
