WIP- Past to Present

Keeping with the current paint. Its in great condition considering its 24years old, but does have the odd mark/dint that ideally i want sorting. But it'll be sound for this year at least.
Could do with rear arch repair panel on the rear pass side too(the worst bit on the car) where theres rust just starting to come through.


Just tried the paint i bought from Halfrauds, which looked and is called the same colour as the car is....
Does it match, does it bollocks lol, completely different colour.

Pic of welded plates on top of the tie bar mounts on the x-member (ignore the overspray, the tie bars/steering rack etc are being replaced)

Soooo, looks like im going have to get some made in a can, and use a compressor to do it :(
Which means more hassle/time/cost.....

if i close my eyes it match's up fine mate.

you cant see it under there anyway lol


was there only that 1 blue nova in the scrappers ?

Draper-There was a blue mk1 3dr, and 2 mk2's iirc.
