After wire brushing, first sanding with 220 grit/soapy water


after 1.5 hrs of sanding and wire brushing ending up with 400 grit


the nice part.... application of one of the best products ever ...autosol...done using a brass wire brush and slow spinning drill


shine...shine... shine...40..mins


shine..shine..shine...1.5 hrs


Shone....2 hrs


Beers time.....

not better than autosol Nigie, but should be used after autosol for the mirror finish.
Ideally that manifold should have been finished with a 1200 or 2000 wet rub, then autosol then mothers aluminum polish, or jewelers rouge....(you can get that from Gally).
But the finish looks excellent like that, just hit it the mothers polish and see for yourself....

[nigie]

After all that previous autosol polishing...week later a brownish tarnished look appeared...so its mothers now...


rub down with 360..then 600 grit...rub on mothers with rotating brass brush



Final .....after buffing with soft brass brush for 45 mins..hopefully dais it...

[Keyser Soze]

looks better there Nigie.
The two 15's are new, same size and brand,185-65-15. But they are in a pair of 4x114 steelies and the cortina's bolt pattern is 4x100 (i'm pretty sure).
If you can locate two rims then consider them donated.

Nigie, was speaking to sammy lastnight, and he raised some valid concerns about using the 15's in the front of the car...suspension travel, it's existing height etc. What he came up with is trading the 15's for a pair of new 13's at his pardna's tyre shop....i'll try to get them accross to you all later...

Love that rail but he will be so much quicker and reliable if he just went to race gas instead of fighting up with the Alc.

Well again..... the TTV8CC would like to appeal to the powers
that be.... notably those who are in contact with, or have significant influence on or who are person/persons under whose portfolio rest motor sports.
There exists is a large, and growing constituency of individuals, some of whom
(1) have a life long passion for motor sport,
(2) have invested heavily in motor sport in all form and fashion
(3) are continually being denied the right to enjoyment of sport on the premise that this right had been taken away from them.

Whosoever chooses to advance reasons or excuses for this may do so, but the fact is that the voices for a home for motor sport are already continuously bellowing loudly.
So its either people are just deaf, or they simply couldn’t care less.

Anyway….The TTV8CC would like to commend those individuals, who in their private capacity have already embarked to provide facilities so that people can enjoy some facet of motor sport. We fully endorse initiatives like this and we thank those for their kind considerations, and can assure that you have the support of the motorsport community
