Had a friend with me today, so he helped me a lot today on cleaning and stuff like that. Thanks Magne! I've started on removing the rust on my wheel arches now, making them all nice smoooooooth :)



Gonna have to buy new brakediscs and the protection ring.


Finished on right side


Just started on left side


And those fuckers who mounted the rear light last time sure gave me some work, thick layer of glue and flexy shit all over :S


Sorry for bad pics everyone!

Oh well, done some minor things today. I have just hidden some of the wires and cables that goes between the airthingy and the top of the engine. Here's some pics:




Have also painted a fair deal of bodywork, its just so good to know that everything is nice! Even though people will never see this places since there will be panels and shitzo infront of it =)







Thats all for now!

That looks really nice man, keep it up!!! =D

The engine loom coming through the middle top of the firewall is such a pain ahe! I am blocking it off and running it through the guards when I rewire mine.

How much of the car are you planning to paint while it is off the road?

I am removing all the rust I find and will paint over that, other than that I plan on painting all the exterior. It's not in the best shape in the world. Might paint the roof by myself though. Will be much cheaper that way, make a professional paint the rest of the car though. Will do everything while the car is offroad.......

What a depressing day! Prolly been in the workshop for approx. 7 hours today...... Started very good with finishing the right wheel"house", used thick bodysealant and every thing looked fookin' great! But then I thought I should remove the rust from the left rear wheel"house", it all went downhill from there :( :(

Found more rust, and even worse! SOME NIGGA WHO HAD THE CAR BEFORE ME HAD JUST POP-NAILED A 15x20CM PLATE INFRONT OF THE RUST, THAT WAY IT WAS OUT OF SIGHT AND HE PROLLY THOUGHT IT WAS GONE!

Feels like I'm going one step forward and allways three steps back

..........










Oh well, I'm getting my new rearlenses and a new frontfender tomorrow so I'm happy 'bout that

Haha, don't worry about rust.... :D
Oh well, this day didn't turn out as good as I hoped it will. The new rearlenses was very nice, the same ones as I've got allready but without the crack! But the fender wasn't right, it was probably for the sedan as it was higher than the original fender... Gotta cut them in half and weld them together :)

Thanks for the promotion Sondre :D

Try as I might, this doesn't seem to be the easiest forum to find.

On a more serious note, its kinda weird that there is so few users on this forum. So much information, and dedication! :cool:
