Cheers,

Chris

Big drama with one door.

Paint incompatibility, crazed.

Update tomorrow.

Got the chicken leg diff (H145) back in yesterday lunch.


Open in new window



Everything went pretty well.

I worked till late last night, I managed to get the brake lines put and the hand brake assembly installed. I also rubbed the bonnet down, one more spray a quick sand and she's ready for final coat.

Cracked another wobbly because someone put my spray-gun somewhere where I couldn't find it. Sometimes the lads borrow mine when they are short and they do the right thing by locking it away, but of course they lock it in their own cupboards not mine. Anyway hoping to get some primer onto the door and bonnet during lunch today.

I also ran out of Interlac 688 that's why you can see the red primer on the inside of the stocko rim.

Cheers Chris

Haha, that'd be roadtrip. No she'll be stored here or sold.

Yeah I'll go into the copshop when I get back and confess my sins.

As aforementioned, the diff now painted:

Henry, a carpenter friend of mine, made up some door trims and a parcel shelf for me....I needed the help! Will get some pics of them up soon.

I also sand blasted 6 stocko 12" rims, got some paint on them too. I'll have pictures up when I get the rubber and hub-caps on.

Nothing major, I ducked off to the pub.

Here is all I got done yesterday, just a coat of Interlac 688 onto the brake plate fronts.

Open in new window



I'll paint it at lunch bake it in the sun and put a second coat on after work. Then I'll fit it to the body tonight!

I've already had to clean my desk after drooling over that new purchase, very nice.

2k is pretty expensive, I thought it was a lot cheaper than that, keep up the good work!

Cheers.

This will be stored or sold.

Shipping would be about 2K to Adelaide......Too much really.

Check out the 67 B10 that I got Sean. THAT will definitely be in Adelaide, cheers to Revhead for looking after her whilst she boards in Melbourne.

Going well Chris, exceptional attention to detail!

That thing has to be finished... bring it back too, isn't it relatively cheap to get it back here?
