Marina's HR restoration

Marina bought herself a very sweet HR Holden - it was in pretty good shape to start with - so we gave it a birthday. Marina still has this car as her daily driver in 2007!

The door had been rust patched before - but due to the nature of HR Holdens - it had rusted again. It suprises me that although the rust had been cut out they had not bothered to rust proof it properly. So here I have replaced the inner and outer affected areas.

The inner has been replaced with great care taken to make it look like it has not been repaired.

The car had ben previously rust repaired and they had got most of it but not all. Here I have replaced the lower left guard outer and rebuilt the inner.

Once I had completed all the repairs the afected areas received a light coat of black etch to reduce the likelyhood of rust setting back in b4 the painter could get to it. This pic gives the illusion these things are breeding but the two cars in the background are my HD project cars.

Graham had to bare metal the roof to rid it of rust under the paint.

Graham has buzzed down the rest of the paint ready for primer ...even though the original colour of the car looks like primer.
