Rob_Mitchell Posted July 29, 2011 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. your be amazed when you see the results after the flat and polish john, i know your blue one was nice but this is going to feel like silk. my engine bay came out perfect for a gun finish ha ha makes me laugh as its only a engine bay.... what we like Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hodge Posted July 30, 2011 Author Share Posted July 30, 2011 Yep she came home about 3pm today. All I can say is WOW. stills lot of cosmetic work to do, such a refit all the glass, rubbers, front bumper etc but the engine is all back together. I'll be filling it with coolant tomorrow and firing it up. Hopefully I'll get the brakes bled off tomorrow too. I've taken a few pic just before it left the bodyshop I'll post up in a bit, but I've nothing as the car is now. I've just cracked on to get as much as I can put back together.

Guest ugp Posted July 31, 2011 Share Posted July 31, 2011 Just let the bugger get on with rebuilding it. If he updated this every 5 minutes it wouldn't be ready for pod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted August 1, 2011 Author Share Posted August 1, 2011 Here's a few pics from the bodyshop when I picked her up. Ready for home I'll get some more pics up later on. It's moving on very well. The engine is back together and running, all the bodywork rubbers are in. Some of the interior is back in too. Icant refit the rear quarter trim until the back windows go in on Friday unfortunately. Todays jobs will be, passenger seatbelt, front wings, front inner and outer bumpers and hopefully give the inside a bloody good clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
