So I eventually got round to taking the second-hand anti roll bar to the finishers, here it is fresh in its old form with peeling paint and looking dirty:
And now refurbished, shot blasted and powder coated in Traffic Red with new Lemforder bushes. I also got a set of clamps which I cleaned up by leaving to soak in white vinegar overnight. This cleaned off the tarnished rusty exterior leaving a nice original silver shine. Shouldn't really need painting.
Pretty impressed with the final finish, really nice shine. Next on the list is wishbones and balljoints - Basically I'm collecting all the parts I need to refurbish my suspension and I've also decided to go with Bilstein B6's and Eibachs. I have also bought new Lemforder track rods and track rod ends.
