Not about the Z axis, about the Y axis.

Down Side Up
Down Side Up


Holy smoke batman, it's even feckin' uglier upside down than it is the right way up.

At least I'm getting right to the bones of it at last rather than kidding myself on that all it needed was a lick of paint.
I won't be bolting anything onto the chassis until it is as new.
Just shows you, if you wait long enough, you'll eventually want to get out there again and get back into it. I've owned it about 4 years now, so I think it's officially 'mine' now, especially when it's down to this state

Help ma boab !! Zil

It's a bit mingin' is it not ?

I'm going to be looking to blast the chassis clean very soon.
Any suggestions - in case a certain Fife based mentalist's plan doesn't come to fruition ?

Im assuming its just surface rust and flakey paint, a good blast should sort it out.

If there's anything i can do to help then just give me a shout

got some nice 3mm ali if you need a new floor

My first reaction is that 3mm is a wee bit heavy, but then again, so what

Yes It will happen soon as we have some cash to splash on the p100.
So blaster visit is going to happen
as I have to remove the p off my drive as they will be laying the new drive soon.
