Period correct undercar neons lol

I just realised I never posted pics of the door speakers. Going to get two new door pockets and maybe make a fibreglass build with them just to try and neaten it up:

So this evening I was bored and had remembered that I spotted a little bit of rust on the front n/S chassis leg when I was cleaning the engine bay. So I decided to strip away the arch liner to get a better look at it.

Thankfully it’s nothing more than surface rust and is still solid so I’ll just rub it down, bit of rust treatment, paint and then coat with some sort of under seal.

What have I started......

What engine is going in it?

At the moment none, the standard one that’s there will do until I can’t get the right engine at the right money. By right money I mean stupidly cheap! Preferably a donation to the “Blackies Mid life crisis” fund lol.

I’m just rubbing down some rust, replacing the left front wing and general tidying up.

Eg: front crossmember rubbed down and primed:

I've already donated to that fund! Did you get the reflectors?

Haven’t had post here in near a week mate. So no, your reflectors, the coloured bulbs, Vectra b chrome interior door handles etc that I’ve also ordered haven’t arrived either.

Aye I know Fred, maybe have to talk to you about a payment plan or something though lol.

So today I have here a few coats of under seal:

And then after a few hours I built her back up again, looking more like herself again:

Looking good mate. Time to get ballsy and get the heat gun out, or get some forever black ordered
Also @j44nty used some fancy coating thing on his jeeps bumpers would mean you'd never have to treat your black bits again! (Or at least for a brave whole anyway)

Yea I’ve already spoke with @bmc_pete about treatment for the bumpers. Gonna order what he has recommended and take it from there.

I’ve just had these delivered. I love carbon fibre and how it looks. These are dipped admittedly, but still look good imo

 

[Blackie]

I couldn’t wait any longer, so stuck the tail lights on to see how they look:
