Im sure any good local automtive paint supplyers will mix you some. i know theres a shop on ebay that sells all types maybe worth doing a search for them & asking if he will mix you some. think the company sells jewels paint or is called it. you can try see if you have a brown brothers etc local...

Great to see some parts have been salvaged, boy was it a rottbox not seen any motor that bad in a very good few years.

Good to here , happy days

if it was boiling up still good chance the heater will blow cold

Hi yes with engine idiling sometimes you can give them the odd rev to try & push it out but i find it best just to have heater on hot to keep the water going round . on the transit taxi engines we had to have a hose pipe running into the header tank just to push them out right begger to bleed wh...

Could be air lock if it was ok before you renewed the antifreeze ? try running the car with heater on hot temp that usally does the trick also leave the cap off , you may have a bleed screw or bolt on the pipe to relese the air from the system ? if its still boiling up try the stat . just hope your ...

Happy Birthday josh hope you had a good un.

Josh if you want a 2nd opinion to see if its scrap before you do break it drop me a call i will pop over & have a good look at it for you, shame to see it get stripped if its easy to repair, ive fixed worse salvage cars than that looks from pics

Hi try ferecla G3 with smear of water on the mop head to give it a nice cream rather than thick paste as it comes also splash water on the panel 1st , you can buy just a small tube thats goes along way rather than a tin, then once mopped with G3 or G10 wipe the area then either polish with your auto...

Theres alot of good products out there like auto glym but remember auto glym is one of the worst polishes for causing paint to re-act if you ever get any paint work done in the future , i use ferecla G3 if faded bad or g10 if new paint just to tone it town then finish off with 3M glaze buster before...
