I've only bloody finished the louvre! just pics : )

[lemur]

After what seems like a lifetime it is finally back together, anyone who has refurbished one of these will know what a ball-ache it is!
All seals from wolfsberg west. still needs all my finger prints wiping off and a fresh polish once i get it fitted to the bus.
Chuffed i only have one off these to do!


























and finally where it will be once the bloody rain stops : )

Nice work mate - I have done the same! Did both one after the other, what a horrible job it is but is worth the effort!
Yours looks like brand new!

very neat work, everything looks so clean!

How did you get it like that? elbow grease and metal polish?

Thanks guys, basically.. time, dremel, and methodical sanding from p120 through to p1200 followed by autosol. The worst thing is now I guess I gotta routinely address it so it doesn't revert. we are clearly all mad :lol:

my bad I will update my thread tonight. She is getting there, first coat of primer should hopefully have gone on one Friday. So long as Stuart and drew are happy she should be painted this week. The amount of work it has taken so far has been immense Hats off to the boys.

I cannot imagine it wont be. You should see the amount of work they have put in to getting her straight. 12 hours to do the sliding door by hand... I am looking forward to getting her back. Just hoping my handy work and choices of interior etc match their work.

Not to mention the amount of effort to get my original engine lid back into shape after the replacement they source was crap....

 

[lemur]
