welcome to my world!

[Mcmini]

Dont I know it.

We want this to be weatherproof and fit for regular road use. She is not a show car. So a good modern underseal has gone on too

Popped over to clear my slate this am. More progress

Brilliant I personally like it when cars are used every day it's a shame for them to sit they should be enjoyed my mk1 shed was a everyday car until someone hit it,excellent well done

[Mcmini]

I need to clean up and paint etc all the various subframe/suspension/brake parts. So the drums and control arms etc are sitting in citric acid. Amazing stuff.

Then the 50 years of crud on the hydro displacers needed to go. Little things like this are super satisfying

[Mcmini]

Subbies in primer and now por15. Smashing stiff this. It sets rock hard... lovely.

Great thread Brian and Liz is it finished ?

It's not finished...yet.

But 7 years later. And having had ALL and i mean ALL of the work pictured above redone from scratch, (i'll share the evil work in pics)we are just there.

Need to resize some files before sharing

Interior panels and carpet this week, and June should see her back
