thanks for the comments :bluewave: just finishing the barrel,removed everything and seal it up with silicone sealer and left alone for 2days to dry properley,before that i shot blast few more parts,,,,brake servo front and back piece,need to make a retain collar for the pedal side bellow to sit on,now got the seal to seal up the black inner sliding plastic bit that i had trouble in removing
also blasted the tow bar i got(thank you) and sprayed it first in acid etch and left it to dry outside and then overnight indoors(keep it warm :lol: ) and bought some new bolts for it
