ok. this week at the land of evil 850... lol

Sat I got up at a nice ealy time.. and planed the BIG job of getting the shell on its side all by myself.. after looking at what i had andwhere the car was.. i put it to paper and did some maths.. lol

anyways the BIG job took me a hole 5 min of setup and roll and strap time. the shell went over no probs at all. sitting on 4 tyres and straped to the carport roof in 4 directions so it don't roll in anyway.

with that job done. I had a look at the job ahead.. MAN THERE WAS SOME CRAP BUILT UP UNDER THERE!!! :shock:

The I went to work Work for a few hours.... finished got home and just started when Marcello and Chris turned up. so I only got about 30min of work done on the car. Sunday was quite good. got the floor pan done only leaving me the boot area..

Monday morning I got the rest of all the crap of and remover the Bat box. and cut a new flat bit of metal out to go in its place.

Tue will be welding in the plate where the old bat box was. and run over it all with the wire brush again.. and rust treat.

Wednesday will be paint, Thurs back on the ground and getting ready for more painting.

Will post pics up tomoz.

Thanks

Cody

Watch you don't get brake fluid on them during bleeding, it'll strip the paint off... :cry:
