\had a busy day today, went into work this morning to make a start on the other arm, got it stripped and painted. headed home for a quick shower and then went to meet Robert somewhere in Yorkshire, to collect a set of style 42s, great to see robert and another fellow zedder, sorry, can't remember her name

Its all coming together, still got some prep to do on the underside before its fully under sealed and do the front to rear break pipes

Those were the ones recommended by @handsomejackuk so tempted to give them a go. And yep that kit is definitely a lot cheaper than powerflex.

Looks like you've done a cracking job of the refurb mate.

I've got to make some brake lines too as despite minimal corrosion i managed to strip a couple of the fittings when removing. Never made lines before so it should be an interesting job.

Bit of a laborious day today, spent 3 hours on my back degreasing and cleaning the underside, also removing rust and taking all the pipe retaining clips off and putting them in soak, still got a long way to go but had had enough so I painted the rear shocks and primed the rear calipers, I am hoping to get the rest of the underside done and under sealed by the end of the week and get it back on its wheel at the weekend, then I can start on the body work, on the upside, Carrie and I went to the local BMW dealership tonight and found the colour we both want on an M4, at last I can sleep at night

 

[Brian4]

found the colour we both want

I guess it's one of the individual colours?
Progress is great and you will have a well sorted zed when you get finished.

It is an individual colour, today was bloody arduous, removing 20 years of grime from the underside, I recon another 4 hours work under there

Think i will bob to Marshalls tomorrow, see what colour M4's are about?
