Re: Update!!
Hi, update... Getting close to the base coat now, most of the body prep has been done, a little welding was done on the sills after the under seal was removed. Its looking lovely and straight. Couple more days and I can start bolting things back on :D https://c7.staticflickr.com/8/7340/27341621446_0...

UPDATE!!! Sorry its been a while
Hello everyone, time for an update on the 316. We managed to clean up the rear axle. I don't think it had been touched since it left the factory in 84' so it was in need of some TLC. I firstly had the rear beam sand blasted and powder coated :) https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5743/21327925571_e09a94a...
