My bad Micky,obviously didn't read your post correctly

 

Looks good Ryan,this Radiator/IC combo looking just great,seen only once at your garage on Ross P1 and must admit we are fall in love this

Red powdercoated bits,will looks great on yours underneath,think we will need something similar


Jura

 

Some great work there Ryan...

But red????

 

Thanks frayz,yes red should compliment the top coat colour nicely

 

Black and red, it's what all the tarts dress up in

 

Today saw the primer run on the shell,got the last few bits prep'd and got her masked up,pretty happy with how it all looks and once it has hardened we can get it flatted and it should come up really well when the top coat goes on given how it looks now.
Just the rear diffuser to finish up along with constructing the bumper to form around the diffuser,prep the boot lid ie weld over the key hole and get some primer/2K onto them with bonnet also and it will be this cycle complete.














And before anyone mentions I wasn't concerned about the tank/rear crossmember getting over sprayed as they are coming off for paint/powder coating lol

 

Looking good, nice to see some it coming together - should be back on the road by Christmas then

 

Hopefully Jon,not to bothered if it's not though tbho.
I still have a massive task in front of me plumbing in all the pipe work to the new locations of the header tank,PS tank and also routing the air pipes into the inner wing for the BS and MAP sensor oh and not forgetting the wiring

Oh and also the external fuel setup to put in as well!!

 

Looking good. What colour is the car going then mate?

 

Good luck

I'm planning to freshen up the engine bay over the winter

 

Thanks Frayz,this was a dirty run tbho with some of the prep being done in the booth but with the car immobilised there wasn't much choice plus all the little nooks and crannys you just can't get all the debris out as much as we try to blow and wipe down so this was basically trapping the crap ready to flat for a nice clean run on top coat.

Top coat colour is still to be finalised mate

 

What's the plans Jon?

 

Fit that old turbo of yours, some powder coating, clean out a load of old salt corrosion on the block and some smoothing

Get a new bonnet vent that I need you add some colour to before I cut the bonnet

 

Cool that should make for a big improvement,adding my tubby will too

 

Nice job again Ryan, it is really going to be some build by the time it is finished.

 

Thanks Ty,I hope it turns out well mate

 

With my guidance, and the threat of a sock in the gob (like going for Monster green powdercoat) how can you go wrong?

 

To true mate

 

Got the shell back into the booth to get some top coat going,first task was to flat down the primer and get it masked up,we decided to do the engine bay and boot in this run with the shell being done tomorrow.
This was because it is simply to much to do all as one and get it all right.

The colour has been a constant thought on my mind for the last couple of months but I finally made a decision I'm happy with,it is a completely custom one off consisting of a bronze base with black[with green pearl in it] on top of that and a light coat of candy mid-night red pearl for the finish.
It looks reminiscent of the mid-night purple the skyline uses but red lol,what I wanted was while the car sits out of direct sunlight to have an almost black look but 'pop' in the sunlight which I'm more than sure it will

Looking very trick mate, almost makes me want to redo mine

 

Wow what a sweet colour. Looks outstanding Ryan

 

is that brown?
like an 80's allegro?

 

Lookin good now Ryan, I hope your keeping a sample pot of that mix just incase

 

Do you not mean a maxi

 

Thanks guys I'm starting to get very excited now,when I paint the shell tomorrow I can then start bolting parts back to it,it's been a long time coming but I'm getting there slowly!
It's very hard to see the colour properly in the pics[as they are poor quality lol] as the artificial light makes the colour miles away from it's true look,I'll post some more pics once it exits the booth and it's in the daylight,it's fooking gorgeous though!!

I know the mix perfectly for any mis-haps Gaz

 

 

Seems brown is this years " in " colour

 

only for you where you stick your winky
