Hi Jim,
congrats for the electricity in your workshop.
Your Heckflosse W110 looks great. I hope it doesn't have too much rust.
Also looking forward on updates of your 319.

hoping that tomorrow the weather will be better because today there is a very bad ambient humidity level .... cow piss falling from the sky ..... normally tomorrow I finish the finishes and I put the primer !

primer is done !

je suis curieux de la result de la peinture. Je pense c'est la meme couleur de mon 319 original. C'est inscrit de une petit panneu a l'interieur ou est la batterie

today is sunday but i was motivated to paint the roof! this is the start of the day.



I arrive this morning at 11:00 and I turn on the heating, to bring the body to temperature:



then I make my last finish and final primer ! (yeah we don't see the difference on the photos ... ^^)







the roof is fu*king large ! my arms are too little to make perfectly the middle



small coffee while waiting for it to dry .... it's a quick garnish in 2 hours it's dry!



I sand again, blow gun, degreasing and ZOUUUUU! in fact .... I had to make only the roof .... but after the roof there was still paint in the bucket ..... so I continue another part. after, I had not finished a panel, so I refilled the bucket ... etc

2 hours with the painting gun in hand, there will probably be one or two drops, I only made one pass so I loaded well. the most complicated was the roof compared to the access even with a 7-step stepladder, I will try to put a second layer on this one








well, there will be putty defects but hey, at worst I could take them back later, one day ...., I still have paint. after it is a utility and not a mercedes 190SL!

time to sleep

after work, head to the hangar! everything is dry and I start the reassembly!





I clean with Belgom on the aluminum chrome!















on the other hand I have to do the driver's door again, I have droplets of sweat that fell on it I had not seen .... I will take the opportunity to make the second layer of the roof

Ich würde wirklich gerne kommen, aber es wird für dieses Jahr kompliziert. Ich hätte keine Zeit, es zuverlässig zu machen, so viel weg zu machen, und ich vermisse immer noch einige Teile, aber 2021 ich komme !!!!

Licht an der Front OK!
