seank90, Back to cleaning

Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me?

Ya , there have been some rough times alright, not going to lie, but it all will come good in the end. Headgaskets are not too bad now becasue ive got ARP studs so theres no more issue there!

It looks like wolfs because its exactly the same as his but in red! :thumbsup:

ill get you some pics of the two plastics later on! :thumbsup:

i might use the cooling ducts for a ram air system like no other :cop

ill defo be placing the oil cooler to the front to cool oil some more and hopefully increase pressure.

Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me?

do! the person is waiting on one to find out

 

Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me?

now we play the waiting game

 

Well, today i decided that i was going to do a bit with the car, after seeing the new site i got a bit more motivation! so i went out and i just put up the front bumper from trinity for a look, and wow! i really cant wait until i have the front finished so i can put it all back together! its going to look great!



So after i toke the bumper back off again and i then removed the chassis bar that goes across the front of the car, no broken bolts so i was delighted!





i will have to do something about the rad thou! half of it is covered in sludge so it cant work properly, so i will need to sort that out, i toke off the wheel first and the mud guard and i only found a bit of rust on the wing and i just thought to myself, SH*T is this the side thats going to be rusted apart...





but i soldiered on and i continued removing the wing and the inner splash guard in the wheel arch...





i managed to take the whole wing off without sheering one bolt!! SUCCESS! i just used daves method of lots of WD-40 and move it half way out and then a little again and wait, so while i was waiting i would be removing other bolts!and what do you know, everybolt came off. so when i toke off the wing i was expecting to be sweeping up most of the rust but this is what i got.




would i be fair enough to say... RESULT?! couldnt be happier with it, no rust what so ever. so i opened the water hatch for the windscreen run off and i thought crap!



quiet litrally, CRAP! and loads of it, but no rust!





so now i can do some cleaning up in the wheel arch and a bit of waxol and it should be good for another 20 years! but i want to get gas for my mis and stich weld the front, just to sharpen it up.

 

im going to mod it a little for a ram air intake.

the camera seems to show up more rust than there actually is... but all the rust ive come across so far just needs to be wirebrushed for a few seconds and its gone!
