Project Copperleaf!
Well I thought I'd get a thread going on the car now I'm back online at home!
When I picked it up: http://img822.imageshack.us/img822/1810/img0937e.jpg http://img853.imageshack.us/img853/7774/img0934wu.jpg http://img11.imageshack.us/img11/4073/img0935rq.jpg No miles: http://img683.imageshack.us/img683/8859/img0939u.jpg Having cleaned it: http://img813.imageshack.us/img813/5...5eff07fd2b.jpg ZS grille freshly painted and reassembled: http://img23.imageshack.us/img23/3906/img0985h.jpg The grille was a nightmare since the paint previously used (silver) must've been cellulose, it didn't like the acrylic! After a good rub back I found Trophy blue beneath that which I gave a couple coats of high build primer too, then normal primer, paint and lacquer. Be interesting to see how well it matches the colour. I've not attached the badge to the grille yet in case I'm not happy with the match... |
keep us updated looks interesting:)

Posting the dials this morning :-)
What other plans have you got? |
Ah great, thanks mate!
I've got a set of 17" straights to go on, and a set of hatch seats to collect, as well as ZS dash trim and an MG wheel and airbag. I've got all the MG badging too to go on... The most important thing is to get the correct ZS handling set-up, in terms of springs, anti-rollbar etc etc... It'll all come in time! |

Looks a different car already, sounds like a good project, least you got a full tank when you picked her up.

looking good there, that colour is lovely and a bit of a shame they only did it monogram for the MK1's or part of the MK2 range....
looks like it is going to keep you busy for a while :) |
It's a great colour, plus there's loads of little things missing from the ZS, like ignition key illumination and the same for the cigaretter lighter.
Should keep me quiet for a little while, I've missed the sound of a K4... |
