Before i start check minispares online they have still black friday. Fletcher radiator 56 pounds and full set of gaz ajdustable ride height with knucles 185 pounds got them also.
So until 4 of December i removed my rear subframe and respray the hole thing.
Started from this car use to be blue in 1981....
And after 8 hours of messing around we had this...
Now i am waiting a service kit from minisport for my HS4 because it was leaking fuel all around so i removed alternator , engine started , spark plugs and did what i could do to paint the block. Unfortunately the yellow 998+ engine made the colour a little bit bride. Things that are coming lucas sports coil, hoses, intake for the carb, fletcher radiator, and clutch master cylinder. I saw some leaks also there(clutch cylinder) plus the rust thing i didn't like it.
So i started from here
3 Hours Later it was here. I used a steam cleaner and petrol tou remove what dirt i found. Such as mud mixed with leaking oil and other disgusting things . If you do the part with the petrol DO NOT fire your engine until next day wait to be completely dry.
Then I took the a hair dryer to put the monte carlo stickers. In order to put them especially on the hood and the fender go a specialist or use 3 persons . 1 to see if they are fitted properply and one to help you out when you are putting them on.Spray with soap the area that you gonna put them one and use a flat tool (plastic more common to remove possible air bublles) To be honest i can't do a complete resto this year due to the fact i am opening a new store now. So until next winter i will try to get all the parts so when it goes to the paintshop the people there are gonna have everything they need. No parts available here.
So I began like this i have no garage
And ended like this. The number in the bonnet are the plates that my grandfather use to have when he got the car in 1967
This was done in the evening so this one is first thing in the morning
I am now waiting goodridge hoses still i haven't put on the 7.5 brakes but i got some photo from the painter with the GB wheels sandblasted. They are gonna be ready in the week. This is what he send me
the one was broken also on the center cap a piece of alloy was missing took it to shop they fixed it for 10 euros.
