Default 2wd Saph Cossie Underbody Restoration(pics added 15th march)

My car has been sorn due to the moody weather since the end of october,i was just going to do a service and aeroquip the oil breather system, more for asthetics than anything else.I then decided after seeing a few good jobs on here that i would have a go at tidying the underside of my saph up ready for the spring/summer.i want the car set-up and on the road by mid-april so ive got plenty of time to do it.Right,here goes the list of things i want to do:

strip the underside of all componants
strip all remaining underseal
repair any holes or billy
rust treatment & hammerite/waxoyl underseal
new bilstein/gaz coilovers
new back brakes
rear end fully polybushed
powdercoated rear beam
lots of underside colour coding
aeroquip oil breather system
big front calipers&discs

This is the garage ill be working in(tight!)

heres some pics from underneath,
diff&shafts will be shot blasted and powsercoated

ill replace all lines with new

ill be taking the rear beam complete with diff ect off this week and be doing a bit of other work so will post pics up probobly every day,once everything is off underneath ill be able to get a good look at the rails and see what sort of job ive got ahead.ill keep you posted.cheers for your support
