Looks good, but i believe a lot of primers don't seal the metal underneath

therefore, i believe your metal is not protected from moisture!

too much time in just primer and additionally exposing it to weather may lead to all over surface rust

you see it in a lot of cars that have been sand/media blasted and then primed (usually for sale as projects on gumtree or ebay), then the project/paint was never completed. they end up with an all over surface rust as the enitre metal is not protected

Thanks guys.

I'm happy with it, considering it was a sad sight all rusted out when I got it.


1200Rallycar, I think you are spot on with the primer not being sealed.

My plan was to block it all down again, a few small dents/imperfections to fix up before applying some northstar 2K primer and then top coat.

I just wanted it mobile and one general colour.
Register and then I can sort all the small things out.

Anyone got suggestions on finished colour.
I'm thinking, metalic silver or metalic gun metal.
Perhaps gloss white or even a tasteful solid blue

Might paint the trx rims also.
Black or white, depending on body colour chosen

White always looks good, and gold wheels look best on white cars.

Sorry ddgonzal -1 for gold wheels
