Love it.
I'll be doing my new garage too when I move in a few weeks

 

She's back, too dark for picks and after an 'ahem' spirited drive through the a roads she needs a quick clean, especially the wheels. Tomorrow will involve putting the interior back in

Then need to decide what to do next - flocking and a retrim of the steering wheel or tax and MOT

 

Glad you made it back ok Jon,glad you where happy as well mate.
You have one sweet ride there and I'm still deciding about mine after it being made to look rather shabby along side yours.

 

Had fun, showed a couple of mercs and a few beemers a clean set of tail-lights

 

I bet you did mate lol,once the brakes are done and a few other tweaks it will be a seriously sorted Scoob!!
I bet your missus just hates it when you mention more mods

 

Really looking forward to see more pics Jon


Jura

 

After 15 years of marriage she's used to it and just sighs

Can you have a look around the workshop, the rubber trim that sits around the door card on the passenger side is missing - it explains the road noise on the way home which I just put down to the lack of trim. The door cards have gone on fine without that pink thing

 

No worries Jon I'll have a look round and post it,glad the door cards are ok as well,I will scribble over my note for monday to order it.

 

Looking forward to shed load of pics tomorrow Jon. Have a good look at Ryans quality work then

 

Looks the nuts lads,a real credit to you both john and c+k.love the colour too was thinking of a mica blue colour change with mine breifly,but kept it oe.

What clear did you use prodriverules ? Was b/c waterbased or solvent ? Just curiouse really.

 

The base was sikkens water based and the clear is sikkens superior Carl.

 

Just finished putting her back together and it's too dark for pics, plus my camera battery has just died - all the same I've managed a couple of teasers to keep you going until I get back next weekend

 

Wow Jon looking very nice,top job from Ryan


Jura

 

OMFG how shiny is that looks amazing
The red bolts work well

 

gonna look amazing in the sun

 

I'll tell you if the sun comes out

 

awesome, nothing better than fresh paint

 

dunno if its just me but those pics are too damn big

http://www.faststone.org/FSResizerDetail.htm its free to download

 

Nope its not just you. My normally super quick Mac takes a while to download the pics

Jon, I hope to see some super duper up to date, shiny as fahook pics tomorrow (if it ever stops raining )

 

We'll see what the weather says BLU, otherwise I'm at the Jap vs Euro meet at the London Motor Museum on Sunday so some pics will be a definite from there

 

Its sunny here

 

I'm out shopping

 

....thats no excuse I NEED pics, NOW

 

Patience is a virtue, on my home soon

 

Are you taking photos from the roof

 

Finally, after months of waiting and being away with work I have the car back from the bodyshop and this is how she looks...















Big thanks to Ryan (prodriverules) and the rest of the team at C&K Motors - the finish is stunning and he still wants it back for a proper polish once the paint has fully hardened

 

Not a fan of the Blue/red colour scheme mate, i think the red clashes to be honest. But theres no doubt that looks a lovely paintjob.

Glad youre pleased with it

 

well I could see one of those

 

It was a pleasure from start to finish Jon,and the pictures do really look **** hot but just to let others know I'm having the car back at some point to detail a final time just to make that amazing finish perfect
The clear coat can only be hit so hard in the first few weeks while it's in the hardening process before it will ruin the deep shine it has and just fall flat/dull so to combat this we have handed the car to Jon to show it off and drive it for a while until the clear is hard as a bullet at which point I will finalize the detailing.

Oh and of course there are now some more parts Jon wants painting so that as well

 

It is never ending, having fitted a red suede roof-lining (not my best job) I'm getting the roof acutriments flocked next. Started ripping the aircon out today too and about to sort out the leveling and washers on my headlights to make it a bit more legal
