Today we cleaned the bottom of the chassis with the sandblaster, primed and painted with one coat of Mate black.

Thanks,

It´s not the correct engine for it, should be a 34hp, but we only have these one for now.

all the sheet metal of the engine is going to the sandblaster this week.

Hi there,

I have to apologize, but I am going to leave here a link Gui's Resto to another forum where I first posted the restoration of the car, I´m spending way too much time posting picture in several forums, I hope you guys understand.
But I’ll keep coming here to give you some news

Cheers

Joao
