BorniteIdentity Posted August 2, 2018 Share Posted August 2, 2018 I know the owner of this, but we don’t talk. He helps out at the garage that ruined my last Mercedes 190e, and he was quite comfortable watching me push it 2 miles home (alone) after a disagreement over repairs. Still, looks gr9.

Ghosty Posted August 9, 2018 Share Posted August 9, 2018 This was delightfully shonky. Rattle canned and brush painted, several different colours. The front wing had a load of unpainted unsanded filler on it, and the front bumper was held together by bracing the cracks with plastic brackets on the outside, held down with self tappers.

quicksilver Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Mismatched panel on a show* car.

Zelandeth Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 Take two identical glass fibre panels with a coloured gel coat. Paint over one an identical colour and leave the other alone...leave both outside to weather for 30 years... I have a sneaking suspicion that a bit more than a polish will be needed there!

The entirety of this shed now seems to have been brush painted with whitewash or silver rattle cans or something. It's fucking awful. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davocano Posted December 8, 2018 Share Posted December 8, 2018 I had thoughts that the owner of this not-Cortina was a 'shiter; I'm probably wrong tho. adw1977, catsinthewelder, Ohdearme and 8 others 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
