KAS Bodywork - Preparation Week One

As mentioned in the previous posts, I have already received a lot of items back from KAS Racepaint. However, there were a few parts that I still needed. As I have been exceptionally busy over the past few years, in the few opportunities I have had to help with the paintwork, time was always against me.

The great news is that today, after a morning of etch priming the panel-work is awaiting the last few steps to give it the professional finish as seen on the rest of my parts. The parts pre-paint have achieved their state by hours worth of work by myself, and the generosity of Paul at KAS Racepaint. They have seen welding, fiber-glassing and sanding over the course of a fair few weekends at the workshop. The legshields have been transformed from cast offs and the floorboards have been strengthened by Replay Scooters.

A big thankyou therefore to Paul and a special shout-out to Gary who did the spraying today. I'm looking forward to the sanding next week! In the meantime, here are some pictures of the prepped parts and the etch priming.
