yeah - the boot spot was a quickie and will oxidise fairly quickly I'm thinking.

Need to attack well and then stop air/weather direct contact with the paint. After the first time using a mild cut and polish wax it 3 times that day.

Unfortunately I dont think you have any clear coat left anywhere on the car :(. So it definately needs a wax with some UV protectorant in it.

Seriously It's only 15 minutes once a month after you give it a quick wash :). That's what I do

or you can leave it for 3 or so months which it will last and then spend 15 mins waxing after washing.

Also yes everyone I know how horrific that paint looks :(

Ps. ^ Not your fault ^ . I'm hogging the garage ............ coz "no one puts baby in the corner" :angry:

If you need a trade plate let me know kyle either me or jase can get it for you

I can't help but think this is going to flop...

Also want to add, if someone reasonable is taking the pics as was planned I'm all for it but I'm not paying to get a calendar printed that people are just using their go pro or happy snap cameras to take pics. Kinda takes the shine off a bit.

I think lack of commitment is going to get us here.

    • Have a vb in honour of the car comming back
    • It was a great, but typical track day, and some VB was ingested at the night time debrief 🤪
    • And so, to round this out, I couldn't be happier to confirm @MBS206 has decided to buy the car. He drove down from sunny QLD with a trailer last week and it is off to its new home today. I'll let Matt confirm on next steps but I understand broadly that the plan is to leave it pretty much as is, and just get some quality wheel time with a nicely balanced car that is pretty much track ready. There are a few a jobs still to be done first but nothing too major and I think its a very smart buy Dinner last night at the Paragon with a round of VBs (mostly) for Neil
    • Well, 50 pages and the end of a chapter for this car. We took it out for a shakedown at Wakie yesterday, and everything went well. There were a couple of niggles: - Oil cooler fitting leak - tightened, cleaned, stopped leaking - Radiator cap overflow fitting was leaking....Mark called it, the overflow fitting was threaded in and not tight....tightened, tested and held pressure - Small oil leak at the rear of the block, probably the turbo oil feed - too hot to get at it comfortably but probably just needs to be nipped up - leak at the driver's side rear brake line where it meets the hardline. Fitting wasn't loose, so Matt backed it off and back on, no further leaks - there's also a leak somewhere on the top of the fuel tank, maybe that cross over fuel line - that was has been left to fix when its on a hoist Otherwise than those niggles the car went great, turned great and stopped great so it was a very successful day out. I'm always really nervous when a car first hits the track after a long break, especially with a brand new engine as well but it was great. VID-20251011-WA0007.mp4  Big thanks to @The Bogan who dropped by and helped out, @MBS206 and my nephew Lachlan the apprentice.  Neil's wife Mel also surprised the hell out of all of us by dropping by; she's up in Tamworth these days but was travelling to Melbourne so had plausible deniability for turning up at the garage, it was great to see her but also obviously a bit sad all round.
