so today was real nice and with the missus away to work i got a fair bit more done!
rear end off for some cleaning to start! this was before so i got all the exposed metalwork cleaned then some spray wax on them and then the exhaust got a bit of autosol too!
lower braces off, heres the difference between the 2 after a bit of a scrub! will try and get a pair of the little mud flap bits as both have taken a bit of a battering on the road and are cracked!
this is a kind of under brace/cover that covers quite a bit of the rear, protects the sump and stuff... all aluminium so it cleaned up real nice too!
got the front of the car up on axle stands to get the wheels off and do the front end stuff... the passengers front track rod end was totally shot and really needed replaced! decided to do the pair of them though.
and then although i said last time that nothing else was supposed to come off i just got a little too excited! got the front bumper off as the 2 side radiators on these are known fill up with crap, so to get to them properly the bumper really needs to come off! also got the arch liners out so i can clean them off car and also make sure everything underneath was fine!
had a wee helper for the day too!
can see in the pics that 2 of the wheels are also split for painting, just need the lips rubbed down!
