Thanks Dave smile

Started stripping it ready for the respray the other day, swaped the 2 back windows for clear ones which are easyly removed due to being held in with 2 bolts.
Removed the side skirts, front & rear bumpers and grill.
Removed front and rear window rubbers and roof bar strips.

Need to remove door handles, front door rubbers, mirrors and cut the 2 quarter panels out (need to get 2 new ones 1st confused )

Oh, also put an old set of wheels on because i don`t want the original getting overspray on smile

Didn`t think it would cost so much, this owes £1500 upto now but its worth every penny, belive me wink

Anyone know where i can get new quarter panels from???

no dave, that bits fine, it`s underneath the car where i mean, theres 2 big black bars that connect to it, think they`re 18mm bolts and theres all corrosion around it, i`ll have to put a pic up or you can come down and take a look.

This should be ready (well painted by) wednesday next week, then it`s a case of putting it back together and getting the new screen fitted.
Been offered a set of deep dish alloys for it 17" but not sure as i don`t know if i`m selling it or not so that would be pretty pointless, heres the alloys (but in white with chrome dish) so will need spraying...
