Not a big update. I'm currently painting my front struts and bits to put the front end together. I have a workshop manual on the way.

And something interesting, looking through my paperwork I found this, seems a doctor originally bought my other shell

ok. motivation is back!

even with a cold, i went and stripped brake caliper and painted it, finished painting strut, finally found the other tension rod, painted it, cut a stock spring down so i whack it in temporarily and started figuring out the order of all the bushes etc.

after seeing prices of some spares, i quite enjoy looking at my stockpile

ive got 8 tail lights, 5 garnishes, 3 dashes, 15 door trims etc haha

Next is to get the other side strut done then once its back rolling, start doing rear brakes

if you have the time could you put up a photo of that whole rear quarter without the skin? really interest for planning on how to cut in flares more cleanly!

Rear quarter without the skin?... Not quite sure what your talkin about?

sorry my bad, i saw the rust in the rear door jam picture and wrongly concluded you had a coupe and that the rear quarter had been unpicked.. been a while since i have seen sedan :)

I may have missed it, but what paint did you use on the crossmember and struts?

Haha all good! The colours called medium grey. Just out of a can but I'm prepping everything properly and giving thick coats. Coming out pretty well.

Anyone got rear quarter and taillight Panel 'skyline' badges they want to sell? Or I've got lots of spares if you wanna work out a deal ;)

Also seems like I need 1 sumitomo caliper as one seems to be missing. Buying a half started project has been a pain in the arse. Parts from who knows what and **** half done
