hey guys! as promised, here's a bit of an update!
the car made it into the shed last monday, and since has had everything foreward of the front doors removed.......
i mean EVERYTHING it's down to a bit of sheet metal
The plan over the next week is to stitch weld some of the more important joins, in hope to make the car a bit more rigid once back on the road.
I will also be filling all the un-used holes in the engine bay (holes from gas conversion, different modifications, holes that didn't get used from the factory etc)... so the bay should be pretty smooth bar the holes that are needed
I've started sanding a bit already, but there is a good solid weeks work worth of sanding in the engine bay to get it to an acceptable kind of quality... so stay tuned for next weeks update
other than sanding and painting and welding, the whole front suspension is getting an overhaul with new bushes and ball joints and all kinds of nice stuff. (along with a coat of subframe black)
.. oh! and a brake upgrade! (vt twin piston)
so stay tuned over the next few weeks, i hope to have this thing back on all fours with rebuilt suspension and new brakes by VERY early next year.
And until next update! here's some pics!
