Got a bit more done today..finished stripping the bottom,gave it a good clean down with thinners..then pannel wipe rust treatment and etched..then tomorrow gonna give it a coat of barcoat just to make sure..not taking any chance this time...

Got a bit of a surprise today when a Heritage certificate turned up(my daughter loves me )so now i know the windows and rear seat are after market..the engines been changed at some point(and i can't work out these engine numbers for the life of me..) ohh and it should be Whitehall Beige so now the question is do i got with the Beige or the smoke gray????

• Got a bit more paint on today..even if it is only etch primer and barcoat,finally starting to enjoy it again and feel like i'm getting somewhere..really not a fan of the Lesson 1k etch primer..no matter what i tried it just didn't want to go on nice..Barcoat on the other hand..Love it easy to use and one coat covers a treat only trouble was i ran out of both i did manage to most of what i wanted done today and hopfully all being well tomorrow i can get the gravitex on the underneath and the floor

way back when

just starting to see a tiny bit of light at the end of the tunnel

main thing is i actually enjoyed today working on it again..thats a good thing

just gotta make my mind up on want to do paint wise....
