Car collected today after been sandblasted, holes filled or welded and and then covered in primer. Not a bad job considering the price
Car still in trailer so pictures not great, waiting on my sprayer to make room in his shed for it.

Bit behind time but ready for paint now on Monday evening. Not long now before she is driving hopefully

Right paint on. Just may give her a few days before I collect it to give the chance for the paint to dry and a chance for me to clear out my shed again. Ill throw up better photos when I collect her then.

Right bit of an update. Back from been painting. Not totally happy with the paint work so may rub back down the two front wings again. Put the subframe in last night and have it rolling so its easy to move around the shed at least.

My first time sitting in it and trying out the seats.

I like it. But just what ate you going to do about rain coming in on top if you.

Will only be out in sunny days. A serious weather check will be done before this goes on the road for each trip.

Suppose sunny spells won't do anymore lol.

Ah trying to make all the inside of the car as waterproof as possible. Won't be doing massive mileage either. Hopefully have her ready soon for the road

Looking forward to collecting this next week. Been a long wait to get the paint right. Colour has changed completely to ford RS green. Don't think it will made paddy's day run but won't be far off.

Much much better in d green dude looks great

Post by **spud1979** » Thu Feb 20, 2014 6:43 pm

Much much better job second time around. I'll know next time to use the guy first. He also done my copper and I'll need him to do some small work on the 79 and trailer before the imm. Anyone in the south east I'd highly recommend him and not too bad price wise.
