Project Bonnevil
I've recently acquired a '93 SSEI. After many a discussion with the Misses I now have myself a new project car. I am looking forward to becoming an active member in the community and greatly expanding my knowledge of forced induction motors.
I am documenting my little hobby along the way and will post updates any time one of the dozens of little projects needed has been completed.
stay tuned...

This weekend I am going to be fiber glassing a few rust spots in the wheel wells, sanding down the paint and am going to paint it flat rattle-can black. It'* going to look terribly mean. This car will never be a daily driver, just something I can bomb around in on weekends and scare little old ladies with.
I'll post a bunch of before and after pics soon. Thanks for the interest.

Welcome to BC!
So it'* going to be sorta a rat rod then?
You'll find that folks here love pics of projects, etc., plus there'* a ton of information here for the searching or asking.

Day 1 : Rust removal and fiber glass.
1 - cheap *** $25 dollar angle grinder
1 - 4" wire brush
1 - fibre glass repair kit
1 - 3M red scuffing pad
200 Grit sandpaper
4 - shitty cans of light beer.
Total cost: $75. Time: 2.5 hours
The Beast:

Drivers side rust

Passenger side

After session with grinder and wire wheel


Primer


Adhesive mesh


Fiberglass


The heart

I still have to do one more round of fibreglass, sand, and then paint. My apologies to for the sizing of some of the pics. The hosting site was being a pain in the ***.
I also realize that this thread has gone outside the scope of this section. I was wondering if a moderator could move this to a more appropriate group.
Thanks for looking.
