MESDUP's 79 323 Hatchback

[MESDUP]

A little update,

just spent another $800 on chroming, did a pretty good job tho brings out every imperfection.

One of my tail light surrounds was rust pitted and had bubbled through so they repaired and chromed it which all up only cost $115

floor has been done with bedliner paint (same as what you do your ute deck with) as im not going to carpet it.

also purchased a new steering wheel that sits 100mm out than most which is good as my news sat in the way of the old one

still finishing my steering off, new idler arm,ball joints, tie rod inner/outer.

just waiting on struts to get painted and tie rod thread to be made

Nearly finished suspension set up, just waiting on new front discs to be modded to fit then can sit it back on the ground finally

[MESDUP]

So got the boot painted, pics are pretty shitty, looks better with a bit of natural light on it

also sent surge tank off to get pollished.

also sent rear bumper away to get all the dings taken out of it and re chromed ($590 later ) and bumper mounts are getting powder coated also

[MESDUP]

So heres the bumper, coated in odourless fish oil (which actually stinks and is hard to get rid of the smell out of your hands) and mounts powder coated, still got to get the coach bolts chromed

ahh so... you know how projects go , all systems go as soon as the new toy reaches your shed , well two and half ish years later the enthusiasm has tapered off somewhat but the project is still here.
