While the bodywork is in progress so far all four doors are done and hood in working, I got removed the engine and suspension parts for cleaning and polish/paint and see whats needed to be replaced. Its coming along nicely pictures below are from whole December didn't get time to update the thread.

Engine removed and engine bay cleaned up


Major rust spot in the bay


After lots of scrubbing and cleaning came out better in original colour




Removed the parts for paint/polish





Paint we were using, all paints were specially for engine and heat resistant.


Painted all the moutings, cross member, engine parts keeping it close to the stock look





Painted the gearbox as well, it was all cleaned and repaired before painting.



Special wrinkle paint on crank case


Polished and chromed



Nice outcome still not final





Got some new parts as well, pressure plate, small engine parts, brake and clutch cylinder, tire rod ends and sway bar linkages etc, as all needed to be replaced, someone managed to get all these here









Got a radiator as well, there are two one for a friend Left is polished one middle painted and on right is stock. Along with the slim line flex-a-lite fan as removing the stock clutch fan.




Removed door hinges, hood and trunk locks, hood hinges, headlight support plates and loads of misc bolts and nuts sent for Galvanizing
