I know - it's been a while...

It's been a little while since my last post - I've been having my car port turned into a garage, so that's disrupted progress somewhat. We also got a puppy, so it's not surprising I haven't had time to work on the car or post...

Over the past 3 weeks, I've managed to remove all of the brake master cylinder, pedal box, dash, and speedo from the car. The brake master cylinder had to be removed since there was lots of break fluid leakage underneath it. I left the lines in, but strung them up to hold them out of the way while I prepared the surface for painting.



I also did the side "rails", and the front bit too. The weather sheild sits over thease, and there was the odd spot of surface rust starting...


(Sorry for the blurry image - too late now - it's all covered in black paint :D)


After painting shots:



...and with the brakes replaced:




I thought I'd include a couple of garage shots - it's much better working on a car when you don't have the wind/rain coming in. Plus now I have my arcade cabinet downstairs so people who come over can play arcade games while I muck about with the car. The cabinet is also on my wireless network, and so is my source of music for my workshop. You can't work on a car without music!





Hopefully my car doesn't end up as unfinished as my mame cabinet...
