Clay’s Wedgewood Blue FB Ute

[Errol62]

21C 61%RH. 23psi full fan. I tried 10% thinners in the 1k Dulon primer, but wasn't fanning out and getting lumps and dry paint. Upper the ratio to 25% thinners with a marked improvement.

I can re a lot notice the difference in the paint build.25% thinners seems yo work well.

Trial fitting tail light gaskets.

Good to hear from you guys. Post on your projects hey? Progress or not come on.

Not much work on the Ute today. But did a lot of organising all the bits and pieces. I did start refurbishing a driver side quarter vent. I g as he the upright a squirt of Matt black and didn't like it so job stalled. My vents from the sedan are still pretty good even though I refurbished them 30 years ago. The rear seal lips weren't done st the time but now they need it.

I did fit the front seat to check out seatbelt fitment.

What a lovely photo of the gals Clay. The ute will look very stylish with the three of you setting off in it to some adventure. Good on you for posting.

Looking good Clay ... must be a good feeling getting close to the re-assembly stage - I'm tempted to bolt in my new accelerator pedal to get a taste of it. Patrick

Thanks Paddy and Brett. Sometimes I wish I had a wagon (hint hint neil) but just means I need to get on to the van. Couple more fun pics. Last shot is me about to lap Charlotte's polo on the driveway sweeper.

Take the inside line, then once you are past feed it some more. The back end of the ute will overrsteer out to block the Polo from overtaking

Rubber discipline
Plenty of lube needed

I was worried if I left my rubber lying around it might get kinky

I had to explain to my kids the other day who Basil Brush was. Made me feel quite old.
