The end of the paint preparation
is drawing ever nearer. Last Thursday the last separate part, the passenger
door, was flattened down and prepared to receive its final coat of primer ...
... which it got on Friday. So
with that job done all the "loose" parts are now ready for final
preparation and after that finally painting ...
And that also meant that it was
time to reunite them with the cars body for a final detailed check and drub
down. So trailer time again, to move the body on to the next stage ones more
...
Current schedule is that the body shell with all parts should be ready
for its final journey to the spray cabin by the end of the month. But before
that a few small issues will need sorting. Most important one being the chassis
number. Due to the amounts of primer and paint it can't be read properly
anymore, which is an MOT fail over here. And while the body was out in the
bright sunlight yesterday afternoon we found out that the orange paint needs
careful application as it looks like there is a certain transparency to it. In
some places there is a hint of the grey primer shining through.
