epic build mate + rep
i only hope that i am half as dedicated as you when i get my next one soon
Thank you Novalew
Sprayed the inside today, looks pretty crap tbh, i got few runs in it and there is a few lumps of dirt in the wheel well. Never mind as you cant see any off the bad areas.
Can't wait to start build her back up!
Will add photos soon,
Dan
As promised Pictures,

Pulled the car out yesterday! Going to paint the bonnet and wings soon, bolt them on. Fit the loom, engine & box, all the pipes hoses etc just to get them out the way. Then when the weather is nice I will paint the back half of the car.
Here she is anyway

Next plan is to paint rack mounts, bolt that in, paint the gear box, fit the other brake pipe. Paint and fit the engine mount then fit it. :) Can't wait!
Dan
Wow,its starting to look like a car now dan lol
Yes she is Craig. Very slowly, hopefully get the engine in next week, then paint the removeable panels when ever I can find time.
If I paint it saturday I want everything ready to put windows etc back in on the Sunday/Monday :)
I'll be watching the progress mate :thumb:
Looking good chap :)
