After 1 day of work...today...
I used some special solution which is dissolving paint and filler from the metal.
This is the result after 1 day....I never thought that my car was painted 4 times before my ownership....
The doors are now at bare metal....
At the engine bay i still have some work to do....
Is soo difficult and time consuming!!!
This..because in Romania i cant find an shop which can sandblast the body and remove the factory body sealant...
I preferred to do this myself....but....soo much work!!!
Finaly...the sun has come up..after soo much rain...i had to pick up my old girl from the shop...because they kept my car outside..without cover....and all the welds are now rusted ...
Is home now...i have started cleaning the rusted areas...still dont know with what to cover the bare metal to protect from rust until the body will be ready for paint.
Anyhow....i test fitted the engine block....i cant use the intercooler i have without modding the front bumper..which i dont want to do...so i need to fabricate another intercooler.
Some pictures with....what will be a car....hopefully.
In the homologation papers...the rollcage...is from 40mm pipe....
For that replica we used ~36mm pipe...not ok...but we couldint find something like that also.
Sorry...i dont know where to find that pipe.
Wy not make from Aluminium?
I was proud for my mk1 golf wheel arches.Now that i see you have that bodykit i will delete your phone number from my phone.
Will ever spring come to get body outside for cleaning and insulating?
I am looking for 45/2.5 mm pipe for my rollcage.I can not find anything.Silcotub does not sell to small campanies.There is Comtech in Slatina that show 45mm in their products.What do you know?
Thank You! I will keep you up to date!
At Billman....please excuse the delay...i couldint make the measurments because the owner of that car is out of country at the moment....i will send you the measurments as he comes back.
All the best!
