Hi Dave.. Is there any news on this beautiful build ??
Keep it up !!
I haven't had the time to do any updates, nor much work. Now that I'm back full time at work, plus family life, I only get the odd 1/2 hour or 1 hour slots per day to do something. I do however take the time to make the odd snapshot of things as I make progress.
The car is currently up on jack stands with all the running gear off the car and I'm slowly working through a shell restoration. Extremely busy with the wire wheel taking things back to the factory e-coat and treating everything with Bilthamber products. So, Hydrate 80, Deox-Gel / Deox-C for any areas that have more than light corrosion or where you can't get a wire wheel in. Electrox (zinc rich primer), 2k Epoxy Mastic and, where required, touch ups with seam sealer overcoat with either 2k Fx-Liner or Graviguard stone chip.
So far I've managed to do both front arches and the driver's side underbody to an Electrox level (zinc top coat). It's painstaking work but worth it.
