OK so its been a while since i updated our progress, work on the car has had to take a back seat while dad finished the loft and my uncle visited from New Zealand in the summer.

We have managed to do some work but its very difficult to keep motivated when all your doing is stripping underseal then paint then repainting with zinc primer. As we showed on a previous posts we have removed the near side rear quater, this has just made us realise how much rust there is to remove when we do the floors and the boot, anyway now the weather is getting bad we hope to be doing a bit more so we will keep you posted. Here are a few pictures of what we have done recently!!!

yea looking gud fella, its gud you and your dad doing all the work, i tend to find that when you do most of the work you also tend to look after it alot more and respect it when its done rather than just paying somone, if ya get me gist.

could be wrong as there is some arosoles which look very similar to red oxide, but me and me dad swear by red oxide, we made up top section innner wings on a scorco storm about 10 year ago coated um in oxide, then the customer stop paying so, so did the work, 6 monthes later pushed it outside car was outside for 4 years, all the element did touch um
