Underside Original |
||||||||||
The previous owner lived on a farm in Norfolk so you can imagine the state of the roads that the car was being driven on. So the first job when I bought the car was a good jet wash on the underside. As you can see the amount of mud that came from under the arches was amazing. | |||||||||||
Initial Cleaning |
|||||||||||
The first two pictures show the extent of mud that came from underneath the car. The next couple of photo's show the initial results. | |||||||||||
Arches & Floor |
|||||||||||
Now during the re-build the front & rear suspension & the sub frames were removed so it was now a lot easier to start work on the arches & the floor properly. | |||||||||||
Floor & Arches |
|||||||||||
The first two pictures show the rear floor with all sub frames, suspension & components removed. The next three pics show the arches & floor painted. I used POR15 for this which gives a very strong & durable finish whilst giving good rust prevention as well. The floor & arches were given three coats in total. | |||||||||||
Front End |
|||||||||||
The front end of the car was also given a similar treatment with all parts removed, cleaned & then painted before re-fitting. Arch liners were then re-fitted once the bodykit was re-attached to the car. | |||||||||||
Finished Pics |

And these are the completed pictures showing everything bolted back on the underside of the car including, suspension components, exhaust and heat shields & covers. | |||||||||||
