Update from yesterday.

I was verry lucky an day off, so we could work hard on the car. It was the plan to go out of bed at 6.30... but because of an party last monday.. it became 7.00.

Begin with sanding and degreasing of several lose pieces and the gearbox. Then finally this could be shot in EP at 11 o'clock.


Man, man it stays difficult to paint every side/hook. Also this time I have to spray almost everything over so everything is covered with EP.Respect for the painters
After that picked up several bolts, also picked up some parts by Franky's. Then picked up some paint, etc.

After that I again started to sand the 100% covered with EP things. First with 320 dry and than 600 wet. There now ready for the final paintcoat.
At last sanded several things that were not for 100% covered wit EP with P180. What an hell of an job is that sanding of these small parts.

Looking good. I saw you painted your rotors, Will that paint withstand the heat of hard breaking without pealing?

I have an info-page of the paint somewhere. But I now for sure it won't hold on. But I don't give a thing. A car is maked to drive, not to stand as an show model

I painted everything, so the inside of the disc maybe will hold his paint on and will be secured against rust.

Agreed. A car is useless if you dont drive it and drive it hard. Get some cheap stove paint and then you wont have to worry about rust.

Been busy at the handbrake-bracket and the pedals today. Here some not finished result of today.
