Ok time for another small update, I've been busy sanding it down underneath and cleaning the rest of the floor pan of surface rust, today I hope to paint the first coat of White smooth hammerite on

First off a shot of either side..


Next a pic of my fuel pump holder after it's been powdercoated


Here's a pic of sum of the bits back from being powder coated

Rear panel almost ready for paint

Rear qtr panel looks worse then it actually is in real life

A few random shots of underneath after sanding the minor surface rust



The next pic is an old repair thats damaged the wing,they used none Ford rivets and damaged the holes, so my dads going to Tig weld or braze it back so they will be strong enough to hold the new rivets in

The wing will need spraying after welding obviously but also because of these marks



Again these are from a poor repair early in it's life.
Lastly is 2 small dents (5p size) or smaller to be honest on the leading edge of the front panel


These 2 marks will be easily filled when the front panel and engine bay are sprayed in the next step of the restoration.
Update Thursday nite (12th) of the painted finish then no updates for 2 weeks as i'm away

Enjoy

Paul
