Chassis is Back from Painters

The Chassis and bare metal parts have been hot metal sprayed and coated with a 2 pack paint.  The chassis has been sprayed with a wheel silver, and the other parts are in gloss black.  The finish isn't smooth since the molten aluminium isn't quite like a paint or powder coat.  It does look good in the flesh though, and at least it won't rust!

Body & Chassis Arrived!

At last, the body and chassis, along with many other parts, have arrived!

They came off the ferry this morning and were delivered right to my door.

It is a horrible day today, so we got a bit wind swept and wet, but at least the car is now safe indoors.

A big thanks to Dave for driving it the 650 miles to get it here.

I have put the body and chassis in the garage for now, and the rest of the parts into my container on shelves.  I will go through it again and check to see if I have missed anything for the early stages of the build.

I can't wait to get stuck in!
