QUICK UPDATE,
MY CAR HAS BEEN AT A MATE BEING BLOCKED,PRIMERED & PREPED PROPERLY. I SENT IT THERE TO MAKE SURE I DIDNT MISS ANYTHING,
IM STILL DOING EVERYTHING THOUGH.
IM GETTING IT BACK THIS WEEK THEN THE SERIOUS WORK BEGINS!
SO ALL I'VE DONE WAS TO WELD UP THE ROLL CAGE & OTHER SMALL
BITS, NOTHING SERIOUS THOUGH!
I STILL NEED SOME FLANGES FOR THE BACK OF THE R-C, THE WHOLE
UNIT FIT THROUGH THE DOOR!

I THINK IT'LL LOOK NICE IN WHITE POWDERCOAT!

THIS IS THE ORIGINAL HEADLIGHTS THAT I ORDERED OVER EBAY SOME TIME BACK.
HAD A NICE SURPRIZE WHEN I OPENED THE BOX!
Image
Image
Image

MY COILOVERS, ITS NOT FANCY BUT IT'LL DO, IT'LL DO! (FOR NOW)
Image
Image
Image

THE PARTS READY FOR COLLECTION THIS WEEK, IM JUST LETTING THEM GO OVER THE
INDIVIDUAL PARTS AS I WILL ASSEMBLE, PAINT ETC IT.
Image
Image
Image
Image
Image

THE BODY ITSELF HAS BEEN BLOCKED, IT'LL GET PRIMERED THIS WEEK, BLOCKED & WETSANDED.(INSIDE OUT!)
Image
Image
Image
Image

THE BOOTLID TOOK A BIT OF WORK! AFTER WELDING THE HOLES IT
WARPED, I TRIED TO FIX IT, GOT FRUSTRATED & BEAT IT WITH MY BIG
HAMMER!

BLACK & WHITE PANDA STYLE WITH A TWIST!
ITS NOT A SHOW & SHINE CAR, BUT IM PAINTING IT TO A DEGREE THAT IT COULD BE, IF ENTERED!
PERFECTION WOULD BE MY DOWNFALL!
