Hi everybody!

It's started like this
Cuting and welding
Sandblasting uderbody
Before painting
Puting it all together
Insulation
New hood (oryginal BMW)
and
just before painting
and the final result (086 schwarz - colour from 1980 BMW E21)
Mercedes can bring "Freude am Fahren"
More pics will follow.

The car was sandblasted to remove the undercoat. After sandblasting we discovered holes that were not noticable before. So it was very usefull. And we removed the rust completly. We also sanblasted the trunk, engine bay and the interior. The rust is goneJ.K.jr.bad. wrote:very very nice!
how long did it took to sandblast whole car? and did you before blasting removed undercoat?
