cute wee gem Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Haha yeah. I got the idea of those paint/rust stripping things from your thread, so big thanks to you, made my life so much easier haha. The shed is great, kicked my parents car and boat out along time ago (when i had my first project) muahaha. When i first started i had no power in there.. no lights etc, ran a lead light from the house at night, did my first 2 projects completely by hand.. I just need some extraction fans, heater and lots of lights on the walls and turn her into a booth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cute wee gem Posted July 3, 2006 Share Posted July 3, 2006 Yeah i did, was my first car, got it when i was 15 (17 now), painted it twice cause the first was absolute shit. 2nd was alot better, but still not great (im a perfectionist ), was an awesome first car though, 2nd car i did (74 colt) i paneled at home and sprayed it in town in a booth, was fucking awesome, useing a gun worth about 1g, heated and lots of light in there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mk1Mad Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Hey, got a master cylinder, dosent look badly scored up the bore, just a bit around the bottom. I think it could be servicable with a hone and new seals. Can have it for free if ya sort me with postage. Ill put up a pic if ya want to see inside yaself.

cute wee gem Posted July 11, 2006 Share Posted July 11, 2006 Oh, found i did have one after all, my mate i got it off said there wasnt one there.. but i found it in the bottom of a box, cheers anyway i'll give ya a bell if this one is a dud though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thminiman Posted July 11, 2006 Author Share Posted July 11, 2006 you can get replacement seal kits from repco, like 8 buck or something, pretty simple to rebuild the master cylinder, IF you have a handy hanes manual. It think there are two types of the cylinders tho, so two kits, so your really have to strip it down and take the old seals with you to repco.

thminiman Posted July 13, 2006 Author Share Posted July 13, 2006 fuck your going pretty hardout man, r u doing the job all good and proper or just roughing up the paint and primering over it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cute wee gem Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 for the inside im not doing it "properly", i dont see the point as it never gets seen with carpet and everything, but dont worry the rest will be done right Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cute wee gem Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 Oh and I've got school holidays so thats the reason im going nuts on her, it will slow down somewhat during school in the next few weeks so I'm trying to get the hard part out of the way. Body work starts getting easy after a couple of cars and find faster ways of doing things.. and hey, it is a small car so theres not alot to do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raizer Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 my birthday on 23rd aug How old are you going to be? Thats my b/day too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cute wee gem Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 A problem i have struck is I'm not sure what colour to do the inside, the car itself is most likely going to be metallic green, and I find it bloody hard to get consistant with metallic in small cunty places, was thinking I could just flat black it but I'm not sure yet. Engine bay will be same colour as the car though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dylan Posted July 13, 2006 Share Posted July 13, 2006 i find it easier in smaller places,you could always jus get some chasis black and paint it on with a paint brush thats an annoying job tho real messy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
