After only posting about my little 126 on the "Fiat 126 group UK" I have returned to my thread but to be honest nothing exciting has happened. Well maybe a few things...
Due to me slacking off my thread I'll have to try and remember how we got to where we are now haha.
Front where we left off:
That front panel finally arrived encase your wondering and I bought myself some X19 wheels for this little beast
That weekend the front panel arrived we cut the old rusty panel out and removed the remaining rust around it and welded it all up ready for the new one to be put on.
After a few weekdays/weekends going back and forth trying to get this little beast ready for paint we're finally here, Well nearly...
During the time of going back and forth we had removed all the surface rust, got rid of all the little dents/bangs and got her all ready for sanding down. By this stage we had the passenger side done, the roof and the rear ready for sanding.
Where we are at the minute:
I finally had a few days off work so I got round to sanding the rear, drivers side and engine lid ready for the weekend ahead.
This weekend Me, My dad and my dads friend got hard at it with this paint prep. First thing off our list was to put that bloody front panel on, It's finally on and looks mint if I do say so myself.
Once that was out of the way we got straight back the body work and removed all the handles, windows and sanded it all down ready for primer. Just a few touch ups and we are ready for paint!!!
Everything on the car is sitting mint at the minute and were hoping to get it painted this weekend or next. We still haven't made our minds up on colour but we like Honda Repsol orange but nothing is 100% yet.
Stay tuned lads this time I'll actually keep you guys updated and not just give the lads over at the Facebook group a look.
Few pictures from where we left off & this weekend.
