| Newest Arrival: 1970 Spitfire Mk 3 | 2010-03-11 | 3 | Last fall my neighbour told me that he has a Spitfire in the mezzanine at his shop and that it has been sitting there for three years. After buying the car he decided that the car... | |
| Reassembly Completed! | 2008-07-07 | Aside from putting the door panels back on and a trim piece that needs repainting, I finished reassembling the car this past weekend! The only thing that I am unhappy with is that ... | ||
| Paint Brush | 2008-07-04 | Noticed Wednesday that there were spots at the nose of the bonnet where I had got no paint on the metal so last night I mixed up a bit of paint and hardener (no reducer) and grabbe... | ||
| Canada Day Well Spent | 2008-07-02 | 1 | Judy and I put the bonnet back on the car. It looks so nice having it back on and freeing up some room in the garage. Also, the interior is now back in the car. I... | |
| Interior Going Back In | 2008-06-18 | 1 | The car is painted other than the top of the bonnet. I've been waiting for a dry, calm day to paint the outside (the underside is complete). Last Sunday would have been perfect b... | |

| Still Sanding | 2008-05-22 | Still been busy sanding down to the original paint/primer layer, applying filler, and final sanding with 320 grit paper. I will be ready to paint once I have the garage swept and ... | ||
| Sanding | 2008-05-21 | The sanding has begun. I quickly learned that my compressor is too small for my DA sander; it's rated for an average 4 cfm @ 60 psi, but the constant cfm must be much higher; the ... | ||
| Welding Complete! | 2008-04-21 | The weekend saw the A-post closing pieces, sill end cap and a front corner of the driver side floor pan welded in. That brings the welding to an end. I also dug out the grinder a... |
