So after a long year away Down underi decided to come home for a few weeks, thankfully i bribed my younger brother with packets of haribo to start it up once a month and give it the odd wash, so was in good condition when i pulled it out.
after pulling it out of the Shed from her dry storage.
so as it is im going back in 3 weeks, its out of test for 10 months and no tax for a year, Its nearly not worth ncting it for the few weeks but i really want to give it a blast, so every spare chance i get im going to get it ready to throw it through the test and see how it goes,
so ripped of the bumpers and with the grinder and wire brush attachment brushed back all the surface rust, etch primed it and gave it a further 2 coats of under seal on basically everywhere but the body pannels so it will be nice and safe parked up again,
Before:
After:
The Veilsides where looking fairly poor, so decided to polish up the lips to a mirror finish
Before:
Took out all the Studs, and started with 320 grit and worked up to 2500 grit wet and dry sand paper, then gave it a lashing of metal polish.
Finished result, came out pritty well but its hard to tell with the rubbish camera pics,
the studs had some ammount of white scum on them comming out and i was told to leave them in Coke for 24hr and it will clean them up... i guess time will tell LOL
and a throw back of how it was before i left cant wait to get it back up like this again
whipped out the coilovers, seem to have lost my coilover spanner so i thought it was going to be a nightmare to adjust them, thankfully i fully copper greased them before i left, and they wound up and down free hand with no need for a spanner
bit pissed ATM, had a vertex lang front bumper ordered from a guy in england but that seems to have fallen through as he dosnt make them anymore, i have a vvt sprocket and Yashio factory rear lights ordered months ago off ebay neither of them have been delievered yet
so hopeing to book a test next week chuck back on all the goodies and enjoy it for the few weeks im back![]()
