my sore arm..

after a week of sanding and polishing the little alfa is starting to take shape, i mean alot of sanding! wet sanded with 1200, 1500 and a little 2000 grit paper and polished out with a wool pad and i am very satisfied with the results. a few problems here and there but nothing that cant be retouched later i just want to get the bulk of it done. still need to spray one last door as i had to re prime it and block again, hopefully this weekend i will spray it and let it sit for a few days. started putting things back on now cant help my self..new badges and some turn lights last night also blacked out the wheel arches and detailed the under side and boot. wheels came out great thanks to the media blaster, so cheap just isn't worth the trouble sand your self. finished them of with a silver enamel but they are taking along time to cure so i haven't taken them in for tyres..also budget is shot so maybe next week or the next.
head liner is a night mare in this car as it comes in two parts, still working out my plan of attack for that. as soon as the liner goes in i can put the rear and front glass in with new rubbers and she should just start to fall into place..already talked to my mechanic so as soon as she is rolling and finished shes off to him for a service and check up. really looking forward to driving the little alfa up in the local hills, have watch so may YouTube videos that it driving me crazy..
