joel_ep91 Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 thank you phil for taking and uploading the pictures and for keeping me company while alan was priming.thanks john, wasnt to sure on the back end when we were putting it together because of all the diffrent colours but now its all the one shade have fallen in love with the car again really got me in the mood to get it out asap but i wont be rushing any part as we want it to be perfect.thanks liam yea should look pretty sexy in nice shiny red,ok as phil said alan brought out the satin black paint to mark any slight imperfections we found on the body that we couldnt see before the primer so we will get those fixed re prime the areas fixed and then paint, but for now we are letting the primer sit on the car for a week or two incase the primer sinks and reveals more bits to fix. so untill then its the inside and under the bonnet getting some attenction now.the full inside is stripped out minus the cage and dash will stip all sound deadning and what ever else i can find. then weld in my cage and a few other braces the inside is ready for paint gloss black with cusco blue cage.
