Project 504...**Its staying **

I'm steering clear of the Stonechip as im looking for a perfect finish. I considered the epoxy mastic but it's not high build enough to get rid of the repairs and blemishes. I decided the best solution was to repair where needed and give a few coats of high build primer.

I?ve waited for ages for this picture, dreaming what the bay would look like when flushed off. The chassis legs are coming on now, still a little bit of work to go but not million miles away. The lines look so good and suit the engine bay I think, need to see how it looks in paint right enough but for now in over the moon.

Pics aint the best but you'll get the idea









Had some lengthy work to do in order to get the new seats in, passenger side was slightly easier than that of the driver?s side. On both sides the runners were removed along with the cross box section, on the drivers side wee needed to take an inch out of the tunnel in order to fit the seat in. Once they were bolted up the looked the duggies and really suit the car, I can?t wait to get the interior painted and get the seats trimmed and fitted now.








Also removed the box section for the rear seats from the top of the rear arch, as it?s no longer required, plus it will clean up the inside




The rear pannel is also all welded up and filled ready for primer

The car is coming along nicely, al get some pics up after the weekend. In the mean time got my front braking solution delivered and I'm very happy indeed.  8)

saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa mokin!  tasty!

cheers dude

v nice keep it comming, :notworthy:

I know it?s been a while but I've been mega busy with Xmas and the new house.

The cars just about ready for Primer at the moment hopefully be in primer b4 the new years .

The underside has all been stripped back filled and smoothed ect, the pics aint the best, the catty is the wrong colour for my camera  :roll:





The inside is close to being finished aswell, again all repaired filled and rubbed down  



Been into Transcal 2day and the seats are pretty much done looking spot on IMO. The first pic is closer to the colour (Think my flash was playing up). I wanted the BMW leather , but the supplier was sold out, so Robert at Transcal managed to get me a really close match with the Bentley Creama, which is more expensive but looks minted

very nice m8 8)  i bet you're spending a few quid on this project! looks like there's going to be no expense spared
