Well after arriving home last Thursday and having recovered from the jet-lag, I thought it was time to head over to WSR and check out the status of the Mach 1 respray. The pictures below tell the story so far. The next step is rub it back, get it smooth and apply the various top coats (I'm not a paint wizz so forgive me for not using techo terminology). The car will then be pulled down, the engine removed and worked (heads, pistons, carbie, stally, diff with LSD, roller rockers, etc), engine bay painted, and underside detailed. The most amazing thing was that there was very little rust in the body and only a little filler evident. I was expecting to find that the car was more bondo than metal but I was pleasantly surprised. I head back to the Ghan next week and hope that all will be pretty well complete when I return.
I'll put up more pics as I receive them.
Thanks Troy.
