RATT
RSR Project
September 12, 2003
We've
been working on the RATT, but not able to update as often
as the owner would like. Here, John is sanding the primer
with 320 grit paper for final paint.
Andy is
pointing to a spot Mike has missed. Final paint applied!
One picture
shows final paint on the bottom and the other picture we can't
tell what Andy's doing. Is the picture right side up or upside
down?
It's impossible
to paint all the satin black in one shot. You have to paint
sections and then mask off what you've already painted and
then do it again.
But you
end up with no over spray and best of all....you can concentrate
on the area you're painting because you could get lost and
not cover all the nooks and crannies with nice wet paint.
Andy is
rebuilding all the mechanical parts ...fresh paint, fresh
plating, and fresh grease.
Detail
pictures to enjoy.
The pedals
have been installed and now we will rebuild the 935 type struts.
Andy does
the detail work and I do the painting.
Andy does
the detail work and Mark drills the holes.
The holes
are for 935 style warning lights (low fuel, alternator, oil
pressure, and fan).
More paint
work and brake rebuilding.
This car
ran 1980 style 930 calipers.
The struts
have been installed minus the springs. The brake assembly
is getting plumbed saturday.
