I have "stages" that I want to stick to:
- Welding
- Paint
- Interior
- Suspension/wheels
- Subframe refurb inc bushes, tie rods ect
- Engine rebuild
I don't need new bushes yet, the car never gets driven. Ideally I want to keep to my plan, so the right parts are on the car at the right time...
So I've been told, but I've also been told it's the only way it's coming out.
The thread on it is pretty rough anyway, I'll probably have to get new control arms :(
Another night...
Another problem...
More rust. :(
I also started tackling the underseal, it's come off quite well truth be told, Autosmart Tardis turns it into water, and it wipes off with a rag. Only thing is, it's messy and you go through rags like there's no tomorrow!
Also tried to...
Took the last of the trim off last night, personally think it looks awesome without the front bumper!
Also, there's a bit of a dent on the front corner of the bonnet, it's been repaired with a fair amount of filler :(
Welding quotes still need to be sourced, and then paint.

Ahhh I thought they became free after unlocking a certain number of radio towers.
Happy days if not, it wasn't money wasted :D

The shredder (signature Vector .45) is awesome btw.
I couldn't be arsed waiting for it to be free, so I bought it.
You can easily drop a whole group of enemies within a few seconds, super accurate and devastating when up close, and you can plan your attack.
Not wonderful in a full on...
The bow is useless for anything other than CQC shots I find.
Even with a "scope" the longer range shots are really tricky.
I would use a silenced pistol except for the fact it still makes noise.
Did some more work today, and uncovered some bad news :(
The passenger side jacking point and inner sill has got some extensive rust to it:
A bit gutted tbh, hoped not to find anything like this, but it's all part of the challenge I suppose. I'll be looking to get a quote for welding and...
Okay, so with the E21 respray on the horizon, I need to get it ready.
So trim and glass is coming off soon, but I want to remove the 35 years of underseal, I'm making the assumption that I should remove the underseal before the paint goes on?
If so, how do I go about removing it? Are there any...
Absolutely loving the 'wanted dead' missions, really awesome that you have to get the commander with a knife, instead of just RPG'ing the camp like a boss!
