I am gutted I had to work instead of coming to Eurotec! :x Next time though!!!

Well i got my chassis back from Prostrip in Nottingham today thought i would upload some pics.
Now that it's stripped back it's already started to rust. There has been some welding to the front of the chassis but other in that it's in great condition. Will who is helping me with the resto is going to redo the welding this week so will give a further update then!

Hi all,

The chassis and a few other parts were taken for powdercoating last week and received it all back yesterday so thought i would upload photos. :)
I decided to go just for powdercoating rather than galvanising as well and they have managed to get the paint everywhere so everything is protected. I am very happy with how it has turned out, although the colour was not ideal :| I asked for light grey based on the original stock colour but they went a bit lighter... but for the overlall quality, quantity of work and the price i paid i am very happy overall!!

It can start going back together now! :D

Like! :thumbsup:

Just check your grounds when you attach them back to the chassis. Think some guys have had an issue with that.
