Hi all new to OC. Been on .net for few months or so, but fort I would sign up to see how things work over on OC. Some may no me off the other site. Who nos
Welcome to the club
Welcome along, I haven't been on .net for ages now. Glad to see you found us though, get some pics of your ride up when you can.
Welcome. Car looks good. What colour will it be painted eventually? You'll probably have to reprimer it as primer loves to absorb water!!
Hi, im going to be sticking with white. My budget doesn't stretch to metallic colours. Shame really as I do like the Miami and sigma colours on the ph1
Yeah a few people have told me about the problem with primer. Maybe a sand down will sort that problem out? It was mainly put on to help bring out the white with the finishing coat!
You dont scare me !
Lol welcome along
Welcome
I'd get it painted asap, before panels start to absorb water and rust!
Going to be sent in in august, tried to get it in this month but I still got abit more work to do on the rear end
Welcome! love abit of diesel power!

Good stuff, what you doing? Just tidying up or smoothing stuff?
Well when I had the car there was more dents then straight panels, only the passenger door on the hole car was straight. To top it off it was rear ended back in 2008 but not recorded. The damage soon become clear when I took the old bumper off
, but it had a strong engine and the running gear wasn't in bad order. MOst would of scrapped it but I was looking for a challenge
Only thing I smoothed was the ph1 tail gate where the old plastic strip used to be, but the other day I went out and got ph3 so the old one will be scrapped.

Bodywork advice from the man who painted his car with a tin of Dulux and a paint roller? Really?

Welcome along!
I'd ask a bodyshop about the primer, you may have to give it a good sand back and re do it.
Cheers for the welcomes so far guys
