[QUOTE="bal3056, post: 51647, member: 584"] Fuhrer is right. True resto work is when you strip it to bare metal, rework the metal, zinc primer it, complete sanding, then painting followed by re-trimming work to perhaps leather or even high quality PU, set of wheels, suspension ... you name it. This is the process I get involved in when restoration work is done. there is no other way out for older classic bodies. Costs can be high but every dime well worth spent. Yesterday, went to a Classic/Vintage car Show at dataran, KL and wow! True classic beauties about 150 of them showing off their perfectionist qualities. There were Merc all around, but where were the BMWs, the 3.0CSi's, the 635CSi's, the E12's and what have you. Only saw a E21 restored as well, bright red, with black leather interior, truely original. I will post the pics for all to see soon. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
