Project KARMA`

I thought you were still on holiday mate!! Expect a phone call/ text dude, haha!!

Squeezed an hour in earlier, had Lee on the phone in one ear and paint in the other: end result.... my phone will never rust and is now red.. lol

top jobber mate i take it she had aftermarket seats in there from thelook of the runners ?

Yes mate, the oxide is still wet in the pics, but its got another coat to go on yet, doesn't need it, I'm just doing it for my own piece of mind. Its got some porsche high backs, but they have butchered the mountings, otherwise I'd have put some stockers back in

thats a shame but the porsche high backs are cool

Yeah they'll do for now.... but the looks im going for is slammed, narrowed stocker... but they'll do for now

yeah sounds like a good plan bud

All comes down to the benjamin franklins dude... £££

Looking to get it ready to grace the road april next year as 'done', but maybe sooner as is.... depends on too manty £ variables right now

Can wait to get behind the wheel again though bro, its a great feeling to have greasy nails again!!

im toying with the idea of selling the fiesta and other bits like me laptop to finance a on the road project as a daily or another garden resto lol getting itchie fingers again lol

Nice one olly looking good dude you'll have to show me your rust proof phone maybe we could market it and make a mint

When you look to get rid of the Porsche high backs, I know someone who'll probably buy them off you as she's looking for a set to get recovered to match her interior, so condition's not all that important

Oh nice one, cheers fella, yeah they're in reasonable shape, need recovering on the drivers one. Not that bothered how much I get, ideally to cover the cost of some stockers.

Get me a photo of them dude & i'll make inquiries for you. What colour stockers are you looking for dude?

Not overly bothered on colour bro, problem is, they have masehd the fixings for stock seats so I need to cut some out a donor car 1st, it's gona be a right pullava.

Ok then dude, let me know closer to the time & we'll get it sorted dude

I'm no photographer, looks way better in the flesh, but there is no way rust will get through this: bare metal/cure rust/red oxide/ 2 coats black hammerite!

p.s. it will be carpeted anyway so none if this will probably ever see the light of day again within a few weeks

great looking car dude ....karma ?.....well I never ....seriously you do deserve it buddy ....
