NippyNippon Posted October 26, 2015 Posted October 26, 2015 Getting there dude. Wont be long before this is up and running Quote
jayc-glanza17 Posted November 5, 2015 Author Posted November 5, 2015 So had a little bit of time lately..Ive sent rear beam off for shot blasting.Ive fitted new cv joints, but need take back the inner boots as got na ones not turbo ones.But hubs and steering knuckle have been shot blasted clean.so today ive coated them in primer.Sprayed the expansion tank bracket.So next plan is once rear beam has been blasted, too paint it.Paint hubs and build them up ie fit wheel bearings.And fit right cv boots and fit them.after that attention is on the fibreglass cruise parts.

jayc-glanza17 Posted November 6, 2015 Author Posted November 6, 2015 So because of the weather, firework party got cancelled.So i thought sod it, i pop down my unit and crack on painting.Hubsthese have not had the final 2 coats or lacquer yet.Finally found a place that shot blasted my cheap for a good price..Got that back to the workshop and primered it in zinc primer right away.
