hi everybody !

work of the last 2 weeks

first lapping valves, unconventional but effective method !

Grouper will soon regain her smile :)

then it's been a big part of degreasing, cleaning to painting the front cabin and rear. not easy and interesting but have to do. So here yesterday the first layer is placed (this is the original color code or approaching), will remain a second layer on the dashboard et the front roof. i havn't done the floor for the moment

to give an idea it took me two hours to paint it and luckily I was well protected (I insist on that because the health and safety above all) because the atmosphere was unbreathable. otherwise I have left =piece of my beard because ui was not enought cover :lol: :lol: :lol:

I hope that the paint will not screw up because of the temperature by night but I'm confident, i'll go to see the result this afternoon or tomorrowt. it's not perfect but it's home made ! :top:

Thank you for these "not too many things to show".
I've learned something with the anti-gravel.
It's seems to be a good idea.
