was hoping to get more done in long weekend, but boss had other ideas looking for lounge suites

finished down the passenge side of car, and under belly
  • cleaned up inside front guard
  • blow torch, scraper, wire brush, 4" rotary wire wheel, all being used together to get job done
  • heavy duty cleaner, double soak
  • Feronite oxide covertor (no rust but thought would use to seal bare metal)
  • KBS Chassis black
  • Once I have finished the complete chassis and under body with one coat of chassis black, will apply second coat
stages of process

Try to avoid Crow springs if you can. They tend to snap on LS so I assume it could be the same with Holden engine.

went on tiki tour through Mt Eden-Onehunga, back to Mangere Bridge where used to live, then back to puke
good to see traffic on freeway has improved, or should I say road works has reduced
great to hear the cars going around Puke track in weekends,
went to Ch-Ch for the day to see few customers, need to get down to Wanganui at some point
nice to have a few servings of NZ green tip mussels and few bottles of Steinlarger
