Looks like you got a really sound car there John, were there any rust issues to deal with?
Chosen colour yet?
Will watch this with interest :)

I take my mind of those great pictures it's where I should be with my car


did you take off the underseal before you had it shot blasted?

Was the car moveable with just those 4 wheels I was looking to use 8?

did it turn ok?

did you use extra support in the car or just used the bumper mounts to attach it ?

the metal that went though to attach to the bumper mounts what thickness was it?

and did you put in a new wire loom?

if so who did you get it from? I have heard of a company in Germany and a guy in the US.

this has got me well motivated..

Now to ask Scout40 if he wasn't joking about lending me his road compressor!!
I have one of those tents I can use and I can see me doing this like soon!! 8) could I get my Pre A painted for March!! could do :?

:lol:
