Good to see you're still cracking on with it Ian, it's looking great.

Great to see you have saved another sport from the scrapheap!
Looking at those early photos there are not many people who would bother to save it. Massive credit to you !
just keep going-the hard bit is nearly done. Will feel great to see those first parts going on.
Ive just looked and 90% of the photos don't appear to be there ?

really chuffed with the e coat. Whilst iv been working in garage/garden iv had a heater on under the car to make sure it's bone dry. Seem sealer will be going on in the next few weeks. Guessing there all as good as each other?
Cannot believe how far you've come Ian, fantastic progress!
Aye aye John, yeah getting it back home and having it in the stands in primer is a huge relief. Moved house again so a bigger garage and more space for tools parts etc is great and should speed up the rebuild.
The lad I'm using for the respray is in the process of moving workshops so once he has found his feet again il get her in for painting. I think 2015 is achievable
Nice progress
Where did you get it e coated in the end?
SPL house of horrors! Before I went down I made holes myself in various places to make sure the paint got everywhere and more importantly the acid got out.
Stripped the steering rack today, came apart easy enough
After searching on here iv decided to renew the pinion bearing, found one easy enough.
going to phone vauxhall about a pair of tie rod arms, never know your luck, might have a pair and would save me cleaning and painting
pics soon of the steering rack rebuild.
