Sandblasted and painted my shock absorber shell (Don't know the exact word for it.) with hammerite, along with my new brake dust covers, so they can last another 20 years. :-)

My friend started welding the last rust it had, and the antenna hole in the fender, and also the sprinkler hole in the hatch.

Fixed my side skirts and rust protected my fenders, hopefully will they not begin to rust again for many years.

Also rust protected the area underneath the fender and the lower engine bay.

Got my windshield out, and sanded down the small surface rust it had, and gave it 4 times Primer, should be enough.

Now I just need to mount the fenders and the front suspension, and then it will be ready for the paintshop on friday :-D

Thanks! Smile

Hopefully it will be done by the end of september, don't know how long the paintshop will have it.

But need to have it done by the 6th october, cause i'm going 7 months to New Zealand there. So I can't drive it (legally Smile , lives on a farm on the country...) until may 2008 Sad ...

Yeah me too, can't wait...

Black metallic with some Gold flakes, not one of the traditional colors, but think it will look sweet... Smile
