Another KA PROJECT WHAT YOU ALL THINK
hey guys here come again to show and tell after 6 month of blood and tears I am almost done with my girls car It has been a peinfull road but its a ford at the end of the day I would take it any day so this is how it began.....
FORD KA 1.3
PAS
NOT ALLOYS
GREY
THATS ON THE FIRST DAY OF PURCHASE Nothinghas been done to it so far
Second week remember that its an after wor thing
I had borrow the wheels from my old fez and end up living them on the ka
WEEK 3 WORKS BEEGINGS
1. Boot delocked and dewipered
2.delocked front doors
3. Not interior as its being retrimed at home by me on leathertte color ...
WEEK 4
sanding a preparation strats for paint
1. sealant goes on
2. 2 coats of high build primer goes on
WEEK 5
The first coat of the final color goes on and people didnt like but i loved it
ford escort mk2 diamond white
After that step my girls decide to go the 2 colors ways and this is what happened
Back in the booth
WEEK 6
I HAVE TO ADMIT THAT FROM THIS WEEK ONWARD i LOST TRACK OF TIME BUT THE WORK DID CARRY ON WEEK BY WEEK
And after some web surfing we found this...
The following pic is not a camera fault its the paint ....
The paint isstill diamod white with a twist
In the midtime the bonnet roof body kit started to get what was gonna be the final color scheme for it
This is how it would look kinda.....?!
So i decided to get on with it even tho people still didnt like the white or the pink REMEMBER ITS A GIRL CAR
But them disaster strikes almost at the end of this race....
Paint in the front bumper react for some odd reason (f***ing dogs around a paint booth)
but the fear didnt take over it was finaly all solved
and it finaly looked like this
Now I had to wait.....
And 7 day after that terrible pain with the pink paint FINALY the final stage of the paint job could begin never too late parking fees were eating me and back to the booth to come out loocking like this...
The drive home for a guy in LONDON on a very very loud and very very very pink KA no a very pretty picture tho DONT YOU EVER DO IT..........
Thats not the car in the post but another pink KA
few days ago my girl surfing the unavoidable WEB (EBAY) she came across this...
But not everything was bad she also got.....
thats all I can show for now 3 day off and I got to go and work on it fast I can belive I missed the ford fair this year... So now Im being pushed to finish for any other event More pics of the interior and sound system will be come soom hoping to be some today...
BUT PEOPLE TELL ME WHAT DO YOU THINK???
