My Capri

[ijdavie]

I have had a ford capri for about 7 months or so and i am looking to get the body of the car restored however i am not sure the best way to do it any ideas anyone ? ? ? ? ?

 

the car runs however no MOT or road tax

 

does any one know a gd body work garage near Edinburgh or just out side edinburgh

What does it need doing?

[ijdavie]

nothing massive mostly the front wings are needing replaced and the paint work is needing a gd paintin there is a few bits of rust here and there nothing big but i would like it fixed but not sure if it is worth going to hole way and getting the car completely striped ?

 

 

cheers

Could you change the wings yourself and then find a good paint sprayer? Save you money i'd expect - Im going to be doing the wings on mine at some point in the future shame theyre spot welded though and not bolted on

[ijdavie]

was thinkin about that mines the same no bolts bit of a kick in the a** where i dont mind spending money to get it minted. where getting the wings off and striping the car i was planin on doing myself there is a few bits of rust that if it get worse could lead to problems

 

which is why i was planin on getting it sand blasted and painted so it is done well ?

you dont want to sand blast it am sure it warps the panels and you dont want that on the rear 1/4 if ur going 2 strip the hole car u could "dip" it
