Time in Garage: 5 hours over 2 days
Worked Saturday and for a hour Monday night
Applied some fibreglass filler ( in the engine bay area) to the lower sections of the inner wheel wells to reinforce where the bolts go. Finish sanded and primed. Tonite I removed the steering column bracket for painting black and the excellerator rod and brackets for painting. I cringe every time I remove another part..but it has to be done...
The sale of the 1957 tub fell through after nearly 3 months of being on hold waiting for the potential buyer to show up. Our schedules conflicted a bit which made a showing difficult to arrange. He finally showed up and determined my tub was not in any better shape than his one at home? I had provided numerous pics so I was a bit surprised! He was also concerned the floor boards had a different configuration behind the seats. I could sense his disappointment and gave him an out on the purchase. We determined the car is probably a TR2. I had a " feeling" the deal wasn't going to go through right from the beginning. It just didn't feel right to me. For example I was very surprised we had arrived at a selling price without the buyer seeing the tub in person? Oh well, back to square one!!!! I have some research to do...more to follow on this subject...
