It took a couple days on a work bench to make sure the control arm was all straight, the parts for the rear checked out ok so won't bother looking for replacements since I have something big on order that will take care of any problems that might be there. The body on the other hand has been almost a week straight of all night welding, hammering, smoothing and repeating but it's looking stronger than before!
I used some blue rust inhibiting primer but ran out coming to the front fender so just used some white I had around, I got my paint color figured out while getting all the work done and it will be a pretty drastic change from what it is currently. I got a little overspray on the rear wheel in my hurry to get the car back together but the wheels are going to be getting a treatment when the body is getting painted.       Soon as it was back together and I finished my backyard alignment it was straight off to the MP drift track for a little testing and feeling out the repaired chassis. It all went well so the car should be going in for paint in the next few days whenever my cans get delivered and I can tarp up the garage to paint it, had to get a water separation unit for my air compressor wouldn't want to have water in my paint. I lucked into some 964 sideskirts that I'll be fitting with the color change and still trying to track down a 964 front bumper, I should have an extra can or two of paint for touch ups and any body part swaps in the future would hate to try to match the color afterwards. Pictures of all that to come once the color change is done! |
