Good luck with the project Lucas. Looks like a big job ahead of you. It is amazing how much underlying rust you can have that is invisible until you remove things like windscreen and guards.

Is it still going to be yellow?

Regards,
Craig.

Good stuff Lucas, can't have been cool working in that shed over last few days.

Keep us all updated as you progress.

craig: ive had a few suprises when it comes to rust. And yes goin for yellow again. Escorts look great yellow i think.[:p]


yeah wasn't to bad in there Rhys had a fan goin that helped.

looks like a good project mate.
its all worth it when your up and running!!
hope it all goes to plan!

Thanks ty its all worth it in the end


Did some more work today. found that the car has had alot of repairs done to it before. so il have to cut all the old dodgey welding done on it and get it all done again. oh well wats more welding hey?[V] ive decided to wire wheel the body to bare metal. but under body and interior i will be sand blasting when i get my sandblaster.

well heres some pics

i want the under body sprayed the same colour as the car so had ago with the wire wheel today and sprayed some primer on it to see wat it would looklike. nice and clean but bugger usin the wire wheel to do it.

looks very simular to my project lucas and a very worthwhile project will be great once its done mate. ill have my project thread updated over easter when I get a chance to go back out and do some more of it. have you got a motor yet? I bought a half cut as it will be easier in the long run. good work mate and keep it up.

nah mate dont have a motor have a black top head. but waiting for a bottom end to come up for the right price. i will be aiming for plus 300kws at the wheels but wont be running it like that. and also have a bloke that is building the car to handle the power mini tubs, strengthenin, etc etc and it will be engineered to drive on the street. so just need to save more cash[:u]

have you been drawing on your arm again with that damn biro lucas??
