$12k.

Remembering that I took a lot of the car apart (interior, windows, glass, bumpers, all lights, etc.)

And it is having some rust repairs done.

Cheers,

I haven't seen the vehicle in over 6 months now...

I was about to start hassling him, and then Vic went back into lock down...

At least he knows that I am still here and waiting...

I did manage to clear coat these small pieces over the weekend:

PS - Oh and another project landed in my lap recently, but I shall start another thread on that..

Hey,
What paint are you using? Spray paint,?

Thx
MJS

Yes - spray cans. I find that cans work fine for small pieces - larger pieces like body panels are harder to paint with spray cans.

Paint wise - I usually use Repco stuff.

To be honest I am not an expert on paint.

If the can says that it’s for metal - I use it on metal.

Same for plastic - check the usage.

Don’t forget to do multiple coats of clear coat on top of your paint.

I somewhat experiment with a panel that is easy to repaint. Often it takes a few years for something to fade in direct sunlight.
