Lol..... Guys, thanks for the comments, and i totaly agree with Digndoug - im not a God at all.... there is no line about me in bible LOL....
Well back on subject: 3 DAY OF WORK on Edo's Celica. Not done much, cuz whole day i spent fixing small things and preparing all the pieces for reasembling. Lets start with the Rust fixing chemicals: The smallest bottle is Rust cohesive material, its the best one i ever used from company Hammerite. Then id dryes it is like epoxyd, really good stuff, you can straight paint on it or use bondo or primers. The second bottle on the left is Rust fixing primer, witch contains some rust cohesive characteristic it is really good to use after all the rust or bare mettal is brushed with the first material. And the third, the biggest bottle - really good anti-rust wax, it is really tenacious, and it is really sticky so it is good to use in the places there the water gets - it stops water compleatly before it gets to the mettal. Here the first material used to fix all the rust and the bare metal, after brushing it - all the places gets dark blue and they are covered in like a thin some sort of skin. After about 3 hours - the rust fixing primer comes to play, i use it everythere there the first chemical was used, just to make sure better covering from rusting in these places. And here it is - all mighty Wax, im covering full iner side of the fender - just in case And for better covering I'v still had to fix one headlight, i did the left mount from piece of plastic, lots of gluing, lots of soldering, but it came pretty not too bad And it is strong, really strong. Fixed the headlight holdes (bottom bars), they there all bended and out fo the shape, after hammering and bending them back - i needed to repaint them cuz in most parts paint was chiping away. And the final - the fun part, made some side bars Took about 3 hours on them, but they came pretty not too bad, changed the original design a bit, cuz with the DG performance designt the wiring is a bit in the place there they have to go, so i made the design of them different.... hope they will help you Edo Tomorow is reasembling and corecting all the gaps on the car day gonna see if i did all the metal works corectly Stay tuuuuuuuunnnnnnned for the updates I already ordered paint, this car is going to be one of the HELL color But this will have to wait -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...

Lets get back on the track )
Days 4-5 of work: Finally, reasembled the front, and fixed all the gaps. Now they are all practicly equal. Wasnt really too hard cuz i almost got all the shapes right then i hammered fenders. Atleast now the front of the car look not out of shape This was the end of the work on the front... Second custom thing for Edosmobile - Strut bar... This sucker got my nerves totaly, cuz making it was like a hell.... first - what ever i did - i did wrong making it... Either it hitted hood, or was hitting engine... so i had to make the front bar bend in the both ends.. and etc... well Lets start with the pics: This is the beggining of the side mounts. Cutting them with disc cutter, and them sanding them till the equal shape... Takes time, but in the end - worth it. This is the end link of the front bar, i sanded it down (sanded all the welds) and got pretty nice shape Needed to make them both equal on the both ends so this took time still... Fitted the strud bar to see is there any issues with it or not... Thanks god - no problems now Anything that is left - 2 center bars... Working today took me whole day to make these 2 bars.... Cuz my welding machine was going crazy... shiz i need new one.. either it was over powered but it burned metal compleatly in few places... so i had to start all over again and again... Welll in the end it my welder setle down and i almost finished - 90% done.. Still need to weld small triangles on the end mounts, and get the bar to get sandblasted and then Edo will chrome it Third custom thing - Side skirts, and then i will move to interior keep an eye guys -------------------- Ex celica owner - just a guy from other side of the pond...
