The bare
metal bodyshell and associated panels have now been
treated and sealed with epoxy primer.
Update report - September 16, 2020
With the car now back from the blasters I am happy
to report that the bodyshell is every bit
as solid as we thought it was, with barely any significant
rust. Truly excellent news!
Update report - August 14, 2020
We have been preparing the
coupe to be sent out to be media blasted back to bare
metal. Even when we think we have an unusually rust free
body, we still cut off the outer sills in order to
access and inspect the inner sills. We were frankly
amazed at the fantastic condition of the inner box
sections behind the outer sills! This car is definitely
one of the more 'rust free' E Type shells that we have
ever seen.
