Tell me, how did you apply the body sealant so beautifully? Looks like OEM

Thanks, that was the aim (well as OE as a notch could look ). Mask up the area, brush on a thin layer smooth and allow to dry then brush on a second thicker coat and comb get the lines. I made a comb using bristles from a hard yard brush.

Wow! It turns out to be artwork! I thought you were using some kind of special sealant gun and great skill in using it! Once again, great work!

Finally got the last of the diesel components removed (fuel pump relay) and the new wiring all routed, so I’ll probably terminate that tomorrow and start taping the interior back up. Also got the O/S chassis leg loom and up to the ECU taped up yesterday.

One day you’ll be beautiful again

Decent few days on the van and made some good progress. Engine bay wiring is complete (bar one connector); and interior is just about there.
Spent a good few hours Gold taping my heat shields, which I think will look mega against the brown and carbon parts.

Ooohhhh shiny

Thought you’d gone back to graft as it’s been a bit quite. I do like the gold addition to the engine bay

Not yet mate, although I have been called in for a couple of days next week; which spoils my plans a bit. Just been spending my time taping up the looms, interior one took ages.

I'll just say that reading your magazine is inspiring, and I look forward to promoting my caddy to the body shop ...Image
