My new 240k Hardtop

Nice work though, this has given me some ideas for the stands I'm looking to build. Looking good!

Today I dropped the C110 off at a local Resto place to get this project moving along a bit faster. It will be soda/sand blasted in the next few weeks so it will be interesting what secrets are hidden beneath the nice looking paint.

Hey your dolly setup looks tops! Pretty much exactly what I'm looking to do next. Any pics of your mounting points or the jig?

Can't wait to see what the car comes back like!

Sorry mate, I don't think I have any close up pics but on the front above what you can see in the pic is a piece of angle iron approx 200mm long on each side facing downwards picking up the front crossmember bolts under the chassis rails.

On the back it simply has a piece of 75x75 tube bolted between the factory cradle mount studs then some 50x50 legs and some 10 or 12mm plates to bolt the wheels to.

240k style- That's the guy restoring my cars daily, It's pretty awesome! He also has another one with a 650+hp RB26.

Never realised the LpG hole so was big

The shell came back from blasting yesterday and it seems to be quite straight with no major rust and no accident repairs. They used soda on the large flat area's and I think garnet In the bay, boot and underneath, I didn't get inside done because it is still really tidy and would only create more unnecessary work. Although the previous rust repairs were plated and not bogged they are not good enough to achieve a file finish so will have to be redone.
