Hi Jon
looking like preparation for painting,now what color would be?




Jura

 

I did a lot of prep myself, Ryan is finishing it off now the car is stripped and should layer on primer this week

Colour is a surprise

 

I understand why is color surprise

Really looking forward to finished product


Jura

 

Me too, only been a week and I'm at a loose end already

 

Post ***** lol.

Seriously though looks like Ryan is well underway with it.

 

Any finished pics Jon

Wiley

 

Yeah, been waiting awhile for this one to be finished

 

Sorry boys but you will have to wait a little bit longer,I've got a disaster going on my end with my booth extraction fan motor burnt out and we currently aren't painting anything and causing a bit of a back log as you can imagine.

 

rattle can it

 

Me too!!!

May be a while longer due to the problems Ryan has mentioned - I'll stick some update pics up when I get home tonight

 

 

Agree

And it will have a texture like no other scoob

 

Despite the bad news regarding the booth, here's some pics of the car in primer...







The wheels still need to come off and get done and the trim is somewhere in the bodyshop getting some fettling to freshen it up - it'll be a cracking job when it's finished

 

leave it in primer looks cool

 

You could set a new trend, the matt primer look

 

I bet will look spot on Jon


Jura

 

Seen it done, not original enough for me

 

any updates on this project

cant wait to see the finished product

 

None yet, been speaking to the bodyshop and the car's all ready for the colour but no new pics. Some more flocking and a clutch are next on the cards and I expect those plus the respray will be all my wallet can now stretch to for this year

Jon

 

Some little bit's of painting from the body shop, all extras and not the main bodywork...








Once the car is back I'll be getting some flocking done (speedo surround, glove box, under the steering column and steering column, A, B and C pillars, sun-visors x3, roof-flap surround and grab handles all in black) and then I need to get the steering wheel re-trimmed and that will be the interior and exterior all but finished - probably going to redo the carbon wrap on the dash.

After that it'll be clutch, brakes and coilovers which is when I'll be looking at the wishbones and lateral arms being painted to match the trailing arms already done by Ryan (and maybe the strut braces too).

After that is engine time which is pinks, TGV delete, quieter exhaust, home made manifold and header tank insulated spacers, larger turbo, FMIC pipework painted in black and red hoses, and then track time

 

Jon all I can say is true Scooby soldier. Looks great and hope all that hard work and deep pockets helped

 

I wish the pockets were deeper mate as I'm now having to spread out the other work longer than I was hoping - and no overtime in my line of work
