Default Saff cossie resto YAP Update 16/07/11 NOW TWO WHEEL DRIVE

Been helping our friend Dan on his cossie resto since march ,nearly all back together now ,i thought i would post up some pics to show you what we have been up to.
The start of the strip down

After seeing my bay he wanted me flush his one.


Pleased with how it came out.


After the bay was painted we tackled the underside



More bits painted ,and new mint carpet fitted.


Delocked

Rear arches sorted

C piller trims and handles painted


Rear beam powder coated and ready

A couple of the engine ,going all crackle black,since the picture all the tanks are now crackle.


Also made up a nice little heat sheild for the brake servo.

Car is going on to 17" satin black mo,s
Let me know what you think.
