Hi, All the parts are just painted. Thanks for your kind words.... Should have some more pics soon.. just trying to get some good ones....

[AndyL]

Are those suspension parts painted or powder-coated? Looks good!

[andym]

Hi.. No not dead....just been to the planet GARAGE......been trying to get the underside sorted. Lots done and lots still to do....I will get some pics up soon, to show the progress so far. Most of the underside is in primer and most of the inside is clean waiting for paint. Lots of hole ect welded up and all the dents ect knock out. Starting to look good, but its very slow going . The underseal/ tar in places were nearly 3/4" thick.. Got some more parts aswell, so i feel at the moment am moving forward (very Slowly) Cant wait till am putting the car back together....The way its going, it will be ready for the Lakes next year. No point in rushing and finishing later this year to sit done in the garage till next year before i drive it. See you all soon at Townley

Hi Hoogi, Nice talking to you. Just sent of for a new floor pan. Will finish cleaning the under side first the then start on the welding...only found one more small place to weld on the rear chassis leg..

so its.

Front panel.
wing tops
Wing rails
wing pans.
front chassis leg ( small)
front cross member nuts...
Rear chassis leg (small)
Kick panels
Wings.
n/s floor.
and odd bolt holes.. ie extra gearbox mounting holes. boot floor.

See you in a couple of months........

As John said Head down...

[Hoogi]

Andy,

Good to talk to you today and glad you've got yourself sorted and with the Jig Mod............sounds like a solid fix to me.

Yep, I agree, new panel for the floor.

Or it'll only eat away at you thinking when is it going to start coming through again.

Jon Spellers nipping round on Wednesday to see what's needed on mine. Hopeful he's going to say I'm "Paranoid" and it's not that bad.

But I do know it's still going to cost me !!!!!!!!

I'll let you know...............

[johnylock]

new pannel !

get the whole pannel replaced andy ! looking at all the graft you have put in so far ! no point cutting corners . Head down arse up mate

[andym]

Thanks for your comments, There always welcome..

Should have left it, found some more tin worms

Need to plate or put a floor in the drivers side. Its like the kick panel. The holes are about 1" 2" in size. So going to repanel, so it last long and not replating in 12 months.

Or do i just plate.....

Will post some more pic's of the holes, in the next couple of days...

Enduro ( Graham was nice meeting you to and again a big thanks ) How is your car coming along and have you sorted that wiring loom.

[graham John]

no easy way to get it off other than graft, it will be worth it though,
