Will do Garry !

Couldn't paint today cause it was raining on and off and I couldn't take the car out because I bared the firewall ! Its just great to strip back the old paint and have no rust or modifications
Instead I tidied up the weld marks on the sub frame where I modified the inner guards to suit the rail trim.


So hopefully no rain tomorrow and I can paint some more !

Not sure why the pictures didn't work, try again. Greg

Nice job on moding the inner guard shirts!.....Had to look twice to notice the trim job.

A bit more today, chipping away.

Subframe in hifill and firewall epoxied.
Regards Greg

Hot today here in Sydney, Soldier on just look out for the sweat !!!!

Started the roof today, and noticed a few rust spots starting so once again back to bare metal. If you look close surface rust under the 11 year old epoxy but worse under the repair primer. Wizzed once then de oxidine then whizzed again with 80 gritt, Epoxied and primed in hifill wet on wet. The firewall is now on its last rub and some colour WHHHATTTTTT ! about bloody time.

Regards Greg

Got up early today cause I could hear the car calling me !!!

Seam sealed, stone guarded then applied some clinker grey 2 pack. Blew myself away, it turned out better than I imagined, although a couple of dust specs from either the gun or from the masked areas.
My fingers are hurting from all the prepwork so thats it for today, hopefully more over the weekend !

Regards Greg

Cheers

Looking great Greg

Gazza

That’s looking really good, I’m sure I’ve got a EK spread around here some where lol

The sub frame has been a royal pain to get straight around the modifications I have done and I have resisted the temptation to paint until its right and that was today ! Unfortunately I got too excited and of course have a few runs complimenting my eagerness !!!!

Oh well more sanding and try again ! Anyway Ive got tomorrow and that will be all untill after Chrissy, thanks for looking and commenting and I look foward to the forum again next year !

Regards Greg

looking good mate , getting closer !

Dont worry about runs , it just means you have put enough paint on

Nope nope not good enough !!!

So I rub down and scuff for two days and have another crack Now thats what Im talking about !!! success at last beautiful clinka grey in 2 pack !!!!

Merry Christmas everyone !!!!!!!!!!

Greg

You must be happy with that Greg. Hope you enjoy the day all.
