hodge Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 Just got back form the bodyshop today and OMFG what an amazing job he's done on the paint. The car is getting dropped off at mine tomorrow afternoon so I can start pitting it back together. The only downside is Auto Windscreens can't get my new screen and rear quarter glass until next Friday. By then though I should have the whole car together or there snouts. Check these out. ROLL ON TOMORROW :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its going to look brutal when its all back together I'm absolutely over the moon with the results. He didn't leave the bodyshop until just after midnight last night to make sure it was in paint for today. I'm going over tomorrow to fit a few parts like the rear bumper and lights etc before its trailered home. Excited is not the word. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brazil Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 You finally do not have to read any more criticism on supraforums as why you have built such a wicked looking engine but did not paint the engine bay..! LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 Thanks guys. It's stock Toyota 040 two pack paint. I've been out in the garage today cleaning parts ready for reassembly tomorrow. First job will be the new brake line setup and the slave n master cylinder. I'm hoping by Sunday night I've got it running. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheTurtleshead Posted July 29, 2011 Share Posted July 29, 2011 (edited) In those pics has it been flatted and polished yet? Or is that a gun finish? Loving the white and carbon either way, great look Also be so careful re-assembling mate, its nigh on impossible to do it all without dinking it on a fresh paint job! But it can be done, I managed it with the mustang, so glad i took my time Would be a terrible shame to damage it now Edited July 29, 2011 by TheTurtleshead (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted July 29, 2011 Author Share Posted July 29, 2011 Yup as Rob said, it's just gun finish. The car body is being flattened back then machine polished today. The engine bay doesn't need it cos it's turned out mint. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
