Popular Post AllTorque Posted May 6, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2020 Still ticking over with this I did clean this rust up and give it a paint before covering it up. Ordered a tool shed power file to finish off the welds. Waiting for that to arrive. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted May 6, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted May 6, 2020 Picked the next spot. After the big piece on the corner this was so easy. Nice to see my skills improve. Starting to get the welds dialed in. Should have stripped the paint back further. 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted June 14, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted June 14, 2020 Made some progress on the outside of the big corner job above Welds got a bit hot and bowed out a bit, so I dug some more bog out. Bit of a mess under there. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AllTorque Posted December 13, 2020 Author Share Posted December 13, 2020 I put the door back on to check the body lines. Hit it with a hammer in a couple of spots but pretty happy with it considering the bog I took out. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted December 13, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2020 Then I thought I would see if it still runs. Hasn’t been started since lock down. Connected the battery, primed the carb... Started first turn of the key. Let it run up to temp and gave it a rev for Trev. 15 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted December 13, 2020 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 13, 2020 Took the door off again. Decided the passenger door lock can go in the bin with the mirror. 21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllTorque Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 I wasn’t sure if I was going to post this cock up. A bit embarrassing. First time I have used 2 part primer and bog that’s not newtech. Start of January I mixed up too much epoxy primer and slapped it on way too thick. Info sheet said to add filler after 25 minutes. I thought that was a bit soon, so waited a couple of hours before I mixed up too much bog and slapped that on. Checked on it a bit later... FAIL After a week of feeling sorry for myself I ground it off again. and put on a thinner layer of primer. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted January 25, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 25, 2021 Thinner layer of filler, a few days later this time sand, bog, repeat... Close enough for 10 days before Wagnats and seal her up with epoxy primer It will need a bit more work, but at least it’s good enough to go out of the shed. 26 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted January 28, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted January 28, 2021 Got the door back on, lined up and glass in. (back door is ajar) To get the window out, you need to remove the quarter window first. Installation is reverse of removal. Of course, I forgot this, but got there. 27 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post AllTorque Posted August 18, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted August 18, 2021 I haven’t done any more panel work. Wagon has been sitting in the shed except for Wagnats and Swap meat. While cruising around at swap meet the starter was threatening to leave me stranded by clicking and not spinning. Pulled it out and gave it a once over. Brushes were still good, solenoid contacts were worn, so got a shiny new starter solenoid. 19 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
