Almost time for the fun bit!

Did they seam seal your headlight scoops to your wings or is it just my eyes?

 

[andrew muir]

Yep I got everything seam sealed,
It was seam sealed before as well.
Not standard but stops the water from getting in.
Got more pics will post up on Monday.

Makes sense, I hope you never have to take them off though

In colour at last

Finally got some pics of painted shell and bits.
Colour looks a lot better in daylight!
Its more or less identical to the old colour.
Unfortunately there are a few bits of dust and will need some polshing to get these out.

Getting nervous now as need to fit the bits backon with out damaging that paint!!

Fantastic Andrew.

Be careful with those bits of dust, don't rush into anything.

Wiper motors and dust, sound deadener

Hi
Been really busy rebuilding the car now that its painted.
Spent 2 hours last night getting the wiper motor and arms back in, while trying not to chip paint, what a pain! does anyone have an easy way to do this?

Also what is the best way to get rid of the huge amounts of dust inside the car and engine bay. Air line and compressor or just damp rags??

Finally as my drivers side floor was repaired and all the old sound deadner removed what is recommended as a replacement??

Cheers
