Thanks for the great comments guys! Still behind schedule though and might take me a while longer to get it finished due to weather conditions and other problems, but an update is still here. Wednesday saw me out of bed at 4.30am and in the cave by 5.00, finishing off some masking up that I'd starte...

I've been a little delayed on this job due to other work needing to be done, like a new front door and frame prepping and painting for the house, but since thats all done now I'm almost free to get the final areas worked and I'm cautiously pencilling in a dat...

Been a busy boy this week. Its taken way too long to get together what I needed to get to the point where I could get some colour applied, but its finally started today. I had to buy the necessary supplies to make it happen though and thats been an expensive road to go, although ultimately an extrem...

Well, the times fast approaching for this one to get its new shiny coat of many colours ( well one anyway) so with that in mind and considering the paint cost that will shortly make my wallet think its had its nuts squeezed by a female wrestler, I decided to make sure I stood the best possible chanc...

Well after a few billion test fits and checks to see the front panel could be fitted and removed with the wings still attached and finding it could (phew) i finally took the plunge today and laid down some epoxy primer. The plan was to put a couple of coats on the engine bay only, however i mixed a ...

Ok so with the backend in the best condition its been for some years i turned my focus to the engine bay. Now, i could have gone two ways here, the hard way or the easy way, consisting of three options, none of which really attracted me, still, ya have to pick one of em! So, 1) leave the bay black a...

Some fiddly, difficult stuff done over the past few days, the paint job that was done on the car was utter shite to put it mildly, comes off in places with a fingernail. Took this off by hand its like vinyl wrap almost. http://i82.photobucket.com/albums/j256/4v6/audiquattro/d0e83bad.jpg Anyways, sin...

Well still proceeding with this one, passenger wing repairs are completed, included two areas that needed a light skim of filler to sort out the panel ripples from a previous parking shunt. Took quite a while to get it so that with the flat of your hand you can feel no transitions or surface changes...

En av de många problem som du hittar när du köper en av dessa bilar är att massa delarna är helt enkelt inte längre availble, det är en stående skämt i Audi samhället sin "NLA" igen .... Samma problem uppstod med de smutsiga / sten sköldar som sitter bakom bromsskivorna. Mestadels theyve v...
