Looks great in colour .....can't wait to get to that point. I'm also going blue but rather darker. Bet you can't wait to be rolling along in her.

Thanks a lot Alfa, last time I drove it I was in my 20's now I am in my 50's, lol can't wait.
Is it a 68 or 69 that you ended up with? What's your link? Thanks.

Dropped by the shop yesterday and snapped some pics, next is cut and polish to bring out the metallic and get rid of a couple of imperfections.

The car is a bit dusty and under different light making the colour look a little darker.

Definitely a big blue car.

Ha ha yes, when I was there I was smelling it and just amazed at the smoothness of it. Quite a transformation.

Thanks Bodie and I've followed you for quite a while.

Well, be sure to stop and say hello. I am not sure if we'll be bringing the 73 or the 67. Depends on the weather. If it is forecast for hot, it will be the 73.
see you in August.

[CDN72SE]

Sounds good ODZKING.

Decided to take a look at the Parking Brake. Here is a before:



And after being left in Evaporust for a few hours:

Nice. LOVE that stuff, only thing is I wish I knew about it years ago when I was doing it the hard way

[CDN72SE]

Yeah I love it, sometimes I start off with the salt, vinegar and lemon method and then Evaporust just so the Evapo lasts longer.

Dangit never thought of doing that! I have my last piece in Evaporust before I can start painting.

[CDN72SE]

Dino, what are you working on right now?

[Dino]

Suspension and steering at the moment. I cleaned up my torsion bars so I could paint them. Then I realized that I never restored the starter shield or the two shield between front valance and wheel wells. I removed what was left of the paint and soaked the rest. Awesome stuff!
