My Rivage Restoration

Glad to hear you got a nice agreed valuation mate, alot of time and cash been put into it.

I did ask the question about agreed valuations below but not had much response, be interesting to know if you get that as a payout no questions asked if you know what i mean

Yeah I know what you mean Rich.

Aslong as theres nothing been done to invalidate the policy there shouldnt be a problem.

Fingers crossed I never have to cross that bridge.

do you think it would then be our responsibility as the owners to push thier insurance company to match the agreed valuation we have on our own cars?

Had another busy day polishing the last 2 wheels.

Spent about 7 hours and there almost there.

They will need a little bit more but my shoulder was in agony  :(

Also fitted my new Rivage side decals which I had from Chortle and they look fantastic.

Excuse the poor phone pics.



Then I fitted my retro radio.



Car was dirty due to recent bad weather so quickly hosed it down.

Refurbed all my badges a while ago using the kit from Chortle but had a few problems getting the right one for the grille GTI badge so I sent it off to Carl for him to take a look and not long after we got the right one.

Just need to give it a few coats of laquer to seal it in.

Karmann badges were the easiest ones.

Use the tape already on them to peel them all off, once the first bit is lined up there all done.

oh cool did you spray the badges satin black or gloss? I was think satin was more like the originals?

Post

I tried satin first of all but didnt like the finish so done them all in gloss
