after respray is done i will hit the suspension/engine/electrics

plan is to pull ALL the suspension out and check for damage rust ect and genrally clean respray greese and replace EVERYTHING. just for piece of mind for me that no dodgey work has been done before and nothing is loose or faulty and of course mint it :D
new all round grooved discs and pads on the way

engine wise ive got a service kit ready to go on and another deep clean is due after all the bodywork rubbing down it looks a mess again! :)

electrics need sorting for the fan (think its the cut in switch only tho)

then will hit the interior after all this is done as will need alot of space and the garage isnt big! so will again pull ALL the interior out, dash, seats, trims, EVREYTHING to metal shell
clean everything back to new sound proof all the pannels and wax protect everything and then it will be done FOR NOW :lol: shouldbe a nice lil runaround :catman:

going to finish of the arches today
