I must be MAD!!!
Well its been a while since I last posted, a lot has happened in this time although I still have a long way to go.
These pictures below show some of the areas that required major work, I've bunched them all together to save scrolling to much...I'll let the pictures tell the story.
Some areas with repair work.
So all the major work was completed, and I decided to have the shell taken away and stripped of its paint, acid dipped and epoxy coated.
Being prepared for collection.
Returned from the strip and dip.
After a great deal of time spent seam sealing, two coats of base paint were applied then a coat of stone chip protection.
One can guess by now what colour I've chosen for the end product.
Engine firewall, not quite finished yet note: the clutch and brake pipes .
Reconstruction of the clutch and brake setup.
Replacing the wiring loom took some time, a lot of old wires were replaced which required a complete break down of the wiring diagram and a trip to a specialist firm.
I've now got to the stage where i'm able to start putting back some of the interior.
More later.
