Cheers everyone for comments and looking been a lot of help from some willing mates along the way helping otherwise would of been an uphill struggle being outside and getting to this stage.
Bit more of an upddate from tonight, On one of the earlier posts ive put ive just got out of hospital after having an op so my mates have taken up reins on car over last few weeks to keep it moving towards being sprayed, the whole floor inside has now been painted in POR-15 and looks a marked improvment on what was there



With it going sunny over last few days had to get a topcoat of primer where the POR-15 had been used as its sensitive to UV light, so under the bonnet and around the windscreen got sprayed first



The sills along the inside of the door and around the lip of the boot and rear quarter windows have also been treated so they where sprayed next while the car was flat




The car was then turned at an angle on the jig and the outside of the sills, under and around the rear the arches and front inner wings where coated



the car was then flipped completley on its side and the bottom sprayed to finish




So paint protected job done and its now up to my mate at bodyshop to flat the car down and add his touch as I want the paint spot on after all this That done only left the inside of the car to spray, before that though had to get the dynomat back on the floor so the car was brought level again, a piece of mat roughly place to begin and then heated up with a heat gun to stick it to the car




Bit more heat to make it soft enough to shape and repeat many times over




Most of the front sections now done so hoping next update will be when insides got a layer of primer over to
