Project Status & Gallery

As it arrived, the Sprite had had extensive metalwork done. Quite a bit of it needed to be brought up to standard and some of it just had to be worked with as it was. First step was to fix some obvious issues, clean it up, remove some suspect old primer and seal it all up properly.

Then I moved onto some filler work, fitting and aligning the front panels, improving the appalling gaps, fixing a bonnet catch issue and re sealing it in epoxy.

Then it was time for a lot of filling and sanding before it was ready to be primed with a very high build, non shrinking, polyester primer. This gives me a lot of build to really refine the shape of the car by blocking.
