Finished Long Side on Kombi
57kombi - November 9th, 2003 at 07:34 PM

Just to let you know I have just finished straightening the long side on the kombi and have painted it in primer.
That means the front and side are ready for paint.
I am hoping to have it all in primer by Christmas and then paint it inbetween Christmas and New Year.
I havent been doing much work on it lately as the long side seamed a lot of work but once I started I had to finish it.

Cheers
Dave:jesus

Got this thing in my head now that I want to do it all myself.
But I have a panel beater who has taken the rear side door away as it was a bit wobbly, .
Will try and borrow AE comp and gun after Christmas as I want to paint it myself as well,
