"Alexis"

Post by Godderz23 »

So about time i updated the thread.

Quite a bit has happened in the last month or so.

Plans originally were to respray the front end and boot. But after closer inspection various dents and rust patches were discovered. So it was decided to not cut any corners and get it back up to as high a standard as possible.

Few pictures of how its looking at the moment, fingers crossed it will be all up and running by may.

Front ends off, new bonnet and wings getting sprayed and front ends getting repaired and painted.

Image

Big hole discovered under the wing filled.

Image

Fuel cap being repaired.

Image

Other dents filled.

Am getting my ass into gear now, bumpers should be sorted next week, and passenger seat leather repaired. New front disc's and rear drums will also be done before its back on the road.

Going to be a busy couple of months, will update as often as possible.

That's all for now.

Chris. :)
