My Project car...
Ok, so I got my first car
...it does need some work, but it has some potential.
Its just a shame that I can’t drive it until I get my L’s…next year.
The Car…
1990 BG astina sp, 1.8 manual,
It has roughly 125000km’s on it and the motor is in very good condition
(never been driven over 80km’s, and mainly highway km’s + a full service history.)
Although the motor is in good condition…I can’t say the same for the body or the interior.
The body has many dents and the paint is completely faded + a rusted sunroof
The interior is basically a mold bucket,
due to the sunroof and a tarpaulin over half of the roof,
allowing the water getting in and preventing the moisture getting out.
The Job…
This astina needs to be completely stripped, interior and exterior.
The interior will need to be cleaned
And the whole car will need a respray.
The progress…
So far the interior has been completely stripped out, except for the dash,
But only half of the interior has been cleaned
(basically the hard stuff – seats and door linings…the plastics are easy)
Also the bonnet, nose panel, front guards and head light covers
have been sanded back and have had their first coat of body filler/undercoat,
and then they have been sanded back again ready for the second coat of undercoat/body filler.
A few Pics… keep in mind that it cost $150aus
