Redwarf Posted January 16, 2005 Author Report Posted January 16, 2005 Dwarf is an off the shelf colour, just not off the shelf of where we went for the paint! It's Wanyes gun, and works very well, good coverage, easy to use. Quote
Medicine_Man Posted January 16, 2005 Report Posted January 16, 2005 Looking excellent Rob, its going to look a million bucks by the time its done at this rate.. Quote
Redwarf Posted January 16, 2005 Author Report Posted January 16, 2005 Hopefully the paint side will be done next weekend. Engine was sat back in today, ready for Auto Elec to do things like pull out the alarm and clean up the wiring. Hahaarrrrggghhhh, we do be gett'n thar! Quote
Medicine_Man Posted January 16, 2005 Report Posted January 16, 2005 If you can knock rally cars out this quick, you should take it up as a profession, he he he :P Quote
Redwarf Posted January 18, 2005 Author Report Posted January 18, 2005 (edited) I would love to take it up professionally, but there's no money in it. Â Car body now seam welded, engine bay electrics sorted (thanks to Pete from Alexander's Auto Electric, Petrie), body mostly finished. New cover for trans tunnel to be made tomorrow. Gaskets arrive from MEL tomorrow, and grunter clutch should turn up in the next two days. Still looking goodish for paint on Saturday...... Edited January 18, 2005 by Redwarf Quote
Medicine_Man Posted January 18, 2005 Report Posted January 18, 2005 You must have had some money saved up for all this.. more pics please!! :) :P Quote
Redwarf Posted January 18, 2005 Author Report Posted January 18, 2005 Believe it or not, this is not costing a whole lot of money at the moment, mainly time and a lot of sweat (EEWWWwwwww). I expect the car will be covered in stickers. Nick, I may need your services soon...... Quote
Redwarf Posted January 20, 2005 Author Report Posted January 20, 2005 Okay, underneath all seam welded....... Quote
Redwarf Posted January 20, 2005 Author Report Posted January 20, 2005 .... and the inside, too..... Quote
Redwarf Posted January 20, 2005 Author Report Posted January 20, 2005 Body work almost there.... Quote
Redwarf Posted January 20, 2005 Author Report Posted January 20, 2005 Tip for new players, don't leave the vacuum cleaner in the footwell of the car while Mig welding underneath...... Quote
Medicine_Man Posted January 20, 2005 Report Posted January 20, 2005 lol, thats a cracker, looks like theres a bit of work involved in seam welding it all.. Quote
Redwarf Posted January 20, 2005 Author Report Posted January 20, 2005 It's not too bad really, it's just access and body deadener that are the tricky bits. Must also remember to unplug vacuum cleaner before tipping water on it to put it out...... Quote
irokin Posted January 20, 2005 Report Posted January 20, 2005 sounds like an exciting day hahahahhaha Quote
