Michelle's MQ Resto

piccies ........... :D

WOW makes a very cool lookin lil ute!!

I know pitty the top is going back on but will need it there for the kids in the back at this stage, but down the track who knows lol. Just jumped back thru a few of my first piccies Wow what a diferance!!

Youve definately ressurected the ol girl Michelle its a credit to you. The kids will love it. You could even get a soft top made for it down the track thats a bit more user friendly to remove. Would be awesome down the beach on fishing trips....or anywhere

Looks good Michelle, long way from the 1st post

So after thinking about the paint job on my ol girl im thinking I should prob do this sooner rather than later, while the canopy is off and all the rest, whent in to super crap thismorning and picked up a spraygun and got a price from repco on 3 liters of acrylic paint, $120 is this good? or I could just go ford blue from super crap but may not be light enough dont wanna change the couler too much since it will just be a basic respray

Your work is really inspiring for all of us. Keep it up. :driving2:

Not much of a guru with paint (actually, not much of a guru with anything MQ/MK yet except how to skin my knuckles professionally) however how far back are you going to sand her, down to metal? If so I'm pretty sure you'd need more than 3 ltrs (excluding the primer).
When I get to the stage of painting the tank (in about..i dunno..2yrs LOL) I've offered a local panel beater a slab of piss if he got the paint for me at his cost which he's looking at it he's being given a slab of piss for doing nothing.
Most garages/panelbeaters etc are open to barter, all you need to do is ask :-)
Unless you've got a contact/account with REPCO they revert to RIPCO.

yeah Bryan I'm not going back to metal, just a light sand and a respray something easy lol she only gunna be a bush basher ;) just wanna make her look respectable

Respectable?? MQ?? Trying to picture me rocking up to an Opera with my MQ and brain hurting!!
