Finishded rearwindow area...



New paint.



Semi gloss is too shiny... 



Found pieces of seat. Made a temporary seat...



Package tray has been sunkissed... not good...



But I had spary paint to fix it.



Fixed those side windows.



At last everything is ready to first start.... oils and fluids and such. Accelrator cable clip was last thing to fix...



So it was time to take this out of garage...



Exhaust fumes.... so it is a runner!



Jesh!!!


Hooded beast is resting now outside...



Why? That is my son´s ex-Diesel Volvo to be turbocharged...



This 2.4 comes out...



..and this R-sport turbo red block is going in.



New Concord adventures after while in my old garage.

Quarter panels had to be painted with better primer than I did previously... Old primer soaked water and began to chip.

Did a lot of sanding and it became decent.
Hope that new primer is much better.





This needs final sanding and some black paint to give me some idea, if everything is fine and smooth..

[juhap]

Did some sanding and sprayed black and shiny paint to reveal any issues...

Pretty nice, I think...





There are something above wheel arch.



This side is quite nice, I think...



Not so bad any more.



Wheel arch needs some attention.



Front fenders got some paint too...



Next thing is to sand front fenders and paint those.

BTW

Do you remember how those quarter panels were before...

Right side...



drivers side...

Those front fenders needed some sanding.



And there were a need for some bondo... After that I sprayed another layer of primer.



Then it was time to do final sanding and spray black paint.



This part of fender had alot of bondo over unfinished metal.



This lower part had some serious issue before.



This fender lip had a lot of bondo over huge dent...
