Restoration of my 91'mod audi s2 coupe 3b

[powercar]

Finally got around to blast my subframes today and now they are ready to be put some new fresh paint on them

Great work and not shy about the refurb work. Well done

[powercar]

At last I got around to paint my subframes and underneath the car

First some pre coating to stop any small rust particles that could hide in some pores that i have overlooked when I blasted them



Then two layers with 2k epoxy primer





And then at last two layers with 2k polyurethane black paint 👍
Always a pleasure to see new painted parts :-)







Underneath the car was also 2 layers of 2k epoxy primer and then i put on some seam sealer around every plate and at last 2 layers of 2k polyurethane black paint.
The Only thing left underneath now before it's ready to start putting things back together is a final layer of spraying on some black body sealer underneath the car







It's finally starting to look like a car again :-)

It have been a slow period without any special progress lately Because of work and other things, but finally some small progress this weekend.

I started to take out the dashbord, cabels everywhere...



And then the complete heater unit



The heater core have seen better days for sure, but this will be changed and the complete heater box unit will get an proper check,clean and refurbish before putting back inside





And then it was time for the fun part, the spiderweb of cables and relays....





Aaaand it's out



I'm glad that i have labeled every wire before i took everything out of the car[emoji1]
But now the work starts, checking every cable and repair it if it's needed.
Or maybe somebody know's someone or somewhere it's possible to buy new complete or have it made?
Or maybe i just make it myself, we will see

Well, not to much have happend in a while, been on vacation and waiting for some parts to arrive so i could continue to work, and also i'm still in vacation mode a bit so i'm i little lazy
Have painted some small parts, brackets and some other stuff, sorry, didn't take any pictures of that while i was doing it

But i hope i get my parts soon, then it would be some progress again

Well, it's been a while since I have been on here and even working on the car actually.
I don't know why exactly but I suddenly just lost all of my motivation ☹️
I have been doing some small things here and there just so it didn't come completely to an stop , but nothing much to show actually.
But now I feel that I have my motivation back so now I can finally start working on this again and start posting the progress her like in the beginning

so this is the status on the car today, almost ready for a re-spray inside the car, just a few things that are left, removing the sunroof cassette, taking out the windows, removing the doors and the tailgate, then a quick scruff over the bare metal places and the rest before cleaning and ready for primer
