I don’t think I can sneak that into the garage without my wife finding out, not like what I do with my tools! :dancing_smilie:

Got any more info on the roof reskin that you did? It's a job that I may have to tackle in the near future.
Looking forward to more updates:banana:

Sure, just let me know what info you need and I can try and help. I’m no expert, just got stuck in and gave it a go.

The product is Car System KS-1000 – I buy it from Bayford parts supplies in Campbellfield. It’s about $15-20 a tin. I’ve used 3 tins so far to give you an idea of how much you can get through.
I like the product, I intend to spray it over the lower portion of both the front and rear valance and lower sills. Once dry you can lightly sand the high spots to give a more OEM finish of a “lightly textured surface” Hope this helps..

Yep, Just trying to add to my knowledge base, for future reference :)

Awesome work martin,
so glad to see the roof came to use.
You're doing a top job, this car is going to be flawless.
Keep up the good work!

It’s been a while but I’ll try and let the pictures do the talking on the limited progress

I had some rust on the RHS Sill outer, managed to cut the rust out, repair with new steel and paint the inside of the sill while I had access.
