How is that tank made, looks like 2 tanks welded together. My bro in law told me that you can make fake XY GT tanks that way.

LJ Looks good and very strait in the pics.

i have read on here that a factory longrange tank is an 4 cyl lc/lj tank welded to a 6cyl tak in the same way, so being two 6 cyl tanks welded together that can be a super rare EXTRA longrange tank, pull it out and put it on ebay and it will sell for millions :blink:

well time for a bit of an update :rolleyes:

...............

not a lot has happened over the last 4 weeks,

spent the first 2 weeks banished from the shed by my doctor :rolleyes:

,
(cheast infections and bog dust/paint fumes are not a good mix :rolleyes:

)

since then mother nature has been doing her best to upset proceedings with some less than favourable weather, the thermometer in the shed didn't get above 10 degrees for over 2 weeks :furious:

but today the sun came out for a bit

been rubbing down the repairs and the rest of the car and I'm finally happy with one of the panels,..................the roof :rolleyes:

it is ready to get its final coat of undercoat :clap:

(just don't ask about the rest of the car :rolleyes:

)

here's the roof ready for final rub down and undercoat.....
Posted Image

yeah I know :rolleyes:

boring as bat shit but I thought I'd better give an update on the project anyway

Hmmmm, anyone got a better boot lid for me to play with :rolleyes:

, this ones not worthy of repair

started to strip it down and found that its full of bog,
its been kinked around the key hole ,

and to top it off its had a ford gt type spoiler fitted at some stage of its life,
someone has done a bodgy weld up of the holes which has warped the area around there repairs :furious:

I'm not going to bother repairing it, so it looks like I'm on the hunt for a better one :spoton:

anyone need a spare bootlid for a speedway car

seems I have one in stock :rolleyes:

got a bit of black into the boot area today,

it was still wet when I took the pic so it looks very glossy :rolleyes:

,
if it doesn't dull off overnight I will be putting a couple of dry coats over it all tomorrow :spoton:
