Progress pics and the cheapest paint job ever...!
Turbo Mini Forums

Looking good Rob! Is that rollered?

Where did you get the rustoleum from I didn't think it was available over here.

Yep doors have been rollered.

My mate ordered the paint, I think he got it from these guys:

how do you paint it around the edges where its difficult to get at with a roller? a brush?

Also how is your car holding up Andy? I am going to do a paint job on the cheap soon and am thinking about this

I read somewhere that this was some kind of Hammerite paint. Is it? In that case, stonechips and dents would be a disaster.

why Vegard? Andy here has used hammerite (its in this topic), the original link in the first post used rustoleum, which I think is something similar to hammerite?

Looks well good mate, cant believe it looks that good from a roller!

Nice one!

Wow okay two years since my last update! Bit of a slow reply I know, but thanks for the kind words.

Lost interest (again) and progress has been slow but I've been tinkering at the weekends over the last couple of months and got a few bits done here and there.

Here's a few pictures saved on my phone at various stages.



Doing brackets for the bonnet



measuring up dashboard

Ah, Astra dash.

And a matching pair of these from Mr Fenton





That's about it so far. Just got to do wiring for the megajolt and put some arches on!

How sexy is that welding

Glad to see its coming along!
