Getting along nicely with some more jobs, not going to paint up the radius arms because I'll exchange them with Minispares once I get paid :P

This morning I've Kurusted a few bits & whilst they were drying I stripped down the subby a bit more, once I've stripped it, it'll be 100% wire brushed and then coated in Kurust, moved to one side whilst it dries & I will then start to separate the engine from the front subby.

Pictures from this mornings work.. :lol:

Wire brushing the subby has come to a halt until I can buy some more brushes! but I'm happy with the amount I've done, probably over half way through.

& painted up the bits as well which have come out nicely :P

Definitly!

The girl I'm seeing at the moment loves Minis, wants one herself but she refers to Elliot as "The Deathtrap" :). I'll have to change her mind about Elliot when she's finished :thumbsup:.

EDIT: Better let Jade know she's got a claim to fame!

Haha, well in my case I guess it was a just accusation since you could count the lines on the road through the passanger foot well :thumbsup:.
