Sand

Ok, I must admit, I sucked on updates...
Truth is, it was a bit difficult these months to work on the car, between the other cars, job issues, budget issues, cold weather issues, workshop organisation issues, things have been a bit demotivating !

But, even if slow, progress is here... So I can today illustrate a process each of our cars should go through one day, wishbones refurb.

For those who haven't experienced it themselves, I must say sanding wishbones is an easy but very time consuming process, and as the cost of having it done professionally is not huge, you should consider it.

So you basically start with something uglishly rusty like the one on the right, to end up with something a slightly bit cleaner like the one on the left.

Then you repeat that a lot, and a lot more on the bigger ones, because you love those big gloves



And after a few hours of fun, you end up with a big box of shiny contents

And the fun will go on Monday with some epoxy paint, Nitron inner bearings and new balljoints !
