Up to the unit to work on the car on Saturday
First job was to remove the roll cage and paint it. It had only been placed in loosely - or so I thought. Good a good bit of 'persuading' to get it back out.
Toyed with the idea of getting it powder coated but decided just to go with Hammerite and a hammered look finish. Applied it with a brush and it looks pretty good (2nd coat hadn't fully dried when I left). Also means if it gets scratched I can easily touch up.

Also took the opportunity to paint the exposed metal beam under the dashboard

Also removed the drivers side window (That damn sneaky bolt under the door that holds the 1/2 light frame nearly tricked me again)
Then tried a trial fit of the windows.

Do I need to remove the button that locks the doors from inside? They seem to be in the way. Do I keep the rubbers to put back on?

Also started working on the door cards. Have a template made in cardboard just need to make one up now in hardboard so I can trial fit.
