. The floor have been light sandblasted, then 3 layer of black special rust primer. 1 layer of epoxy primer, 1 layer stone chip.
Next to do will be paint the floor pan and engine room French blue, hopefully this week.
The painting man hope to finish prep and paint outside coming week or week after.
Hope to get it back home, ready to assembly in between january.
Cheer.....Happy New Year

Start looking like a car again...
My choice of shock is fully adjusable GAZ on rimmer uprated springs.
I have converted to sierra brake caliper and vw golf disc. Made the braket myself using a water cutting machine . Make new coppernikkel brake line all over, also fuel line in 8mm coppernikkel.
The engine is not ready yet, i have to buy new timing chain kit, including spocket.
Is the rimmer kit a good choice?? The block is honed, the pistons got new rings. All bearing new.
Valves reprofiled 3 angle + polish. Head ultrasonic cleaned.
The satin black is going to be painted at a later moment, let the paint release some gas first.
I can't make up my mind about the satin black sills yet. I know it is originally painted black, but I can't make up my mind if i like it or not.....

Get the proper reynolds tensioner. Have a read around the forum where this is discussed a lot.
The pad comes off the cheap one...with disastrous results.
