Decided to do it myself will be doing a full underside resto to as near concourse as possible everything will be replaced or refurbed all came apart fairly easy apart from the pain in the ass tank strap bolt
Think someone went a bid mad with the underseal will have fun cleaning all that off

Good oh you Dean, this car deserves the effort and someone like you to make it a complete stunner. So glad to hear it's all solid bud, that's ALWAYS a bonus matey.
Look forward to seeing it grow over the coming months

Brilliant to know it's solid Dean, tbh a 23-25yr old car will have some rusty parts, I know it stood a lot too so damp/ moisture will do it too
when i done mine underneath all i done to the floor was cleaned and re waxoyled it again and kept the original patina underneath as it came from the factory
they can only be original the once and if it requires no welding i would try keep it standard

Think I'm going to paint it same colour as car Im not one to use it in the wet so hopefully will stay fairly clean
No mate cleaned the underseal off the arches Sunday but been in bed since with this dreaded bug/flu will update week end the floor should be prepped ready for spraying just waiting for it to warm up a bit
But will strip the beam and get stuff ready for powder coating
Lol, it was covered in that crap Dean, I remember thinking that when I first viewed / bought it but because I drive them all yr round it never bothered me tbh.

You're doing a good job though bud
Cheers mate some places it comes off fairly easy but others it's just so thick im have to soak white spirit on the underseal them come back to it and scrub it off
Should all be off the week end then I can prep it all
Shit Dean, that is one CLEAN shell, not too many like that, great this will be once complete matey, I'll have to drive over and see it when finished mate
so are you doing all this lying on your back with the car as high as it will go on axle stands?
And you mentioned getting petrol to get it all off underneath? Are you brushing the petrol on, and scrubbing it? if so what you scrubbing it with?
Yes mate in a car port on axle stands soaked areas in petrol them borrowed an industrial steam cleaner from work
Mixture of brushing and wiping with rags using either petrol or white spirit, just use wheel brushes wire brushes etc it's taken 3 days roughly to get every last bit off
Way too cold to be doing this, just curious but I have noticed your selling all of the running gear and the diff etc. I'm guess your going big bhp and adjustable beam/supra diff?
