The DEMONX 1970 vert project Pt2
demonx:
Nothing exciting to report, just some more slow progress pics.
Inside the rear compartment sprayed with epoxy - in an hour or so I'll spray the primer over it. Then over the long weekend I'll get some red onto the hinges and into the rear astro vent ducts and then satin black around the upper edge of the compartment and an all the metal sections then sound deadner (Kahguard - first time I've used it) around the rest of the rear compartment.
And a shot of my extra lighting to help see into the dark corners!

In primer:
New Chrome arrived!
not the best pic - I tried a few angles but could not get a good photo with my mobile. Considering the condition I handed them over in I reckon they came back pretty damn good!
demonx:
Bare minimum painting today. Just needed to get some red on the hinges so i can let them dry overnight and mask them off tomorrow to paint the black around them.
demonx:
Finished off the rear compartment this weekend.
All the metal parts were sprayed with black and cleared with satin. Then I masked off all those parts and sprayed the rest with Kahguard. First time I've used it and I was quite impressed.
Looks much better in person than in the pics. It's a shame I have to cover it all up!
I went a bit further back than factory on the hinge colour, but in my opinion having the black part way up then colour just doesnt look right so I took the red all the way back to the hinge.

Been a while since I posted.
I've had a fair rest from the old beast and it's time I got stuck back into it, especially after seeing some of the other awesome work guys are doing on the forums... Makes me feel lazy!
A couple weeks ago I spent a weekend reshaping the rear taillight surrounds and the rear spoiler and trying to finish off the body work there.
Also Been working on the rear filler panel gaps. Thought I was finished but bit more work to be done.
Heres a coule pics of one of the door gaps (they were pretty bad) and I'm happy with the end result. Only gotta do that three more times!
