W111: Update - Body Work 2

I was asked to make progress today. RM3,000 was paid so far for the body work, and RM2,000 paid in advanced in order for Uncle Robert to start up the welding job. He mentioned that he has to get the money for purchasing the welding gas tank, and metal sheet. More update after the jump!

W111: Update - Body Work

I gave myself a visit to my W111 today after office hours. It was found that the car body was put on a primer coat. So happy to see my W111 in awesome look! More photos after the jump!

W111: Finally... restoration job commenced!

Oh boy, i'm so glad to see my W111 is finally started to restore. The first job to do is to strip off the old body paint in order to spot the rusty areas. Check out the following photos:

Generally, i was told that the exterior body is pretty in good shape. However, the interior body especially the floor board required to change or replace with new metal sheet in order to get back the original condition. Stay tuned for more update.

W111: Used Parts From Ebay

Guess what? I received a parcel today. It was shipped from USA, bought from the Ebay. Please check out the photos below.

W111: Update - Damn it... still have no progress on my W111!

I went to check out my W111 car today. Unfortunately, nothing has been doing on the car at all but moved it to the shade area. Once again, i did not see uncle Robert there again. He was out to deliver other customer's car. According to the two old men workers, they wanted to start the paint strip off process, but the removable parts are still attached. Moreover, both workers advice me to give instruction to uncle Robert to do it ASAP in order for them to start their work. No work, means no pay for the two workers. Kinda pity the two old workers.

Rang up uncle Robert, and same answer was given to me, i.e: "Yeah, yeah.. yeah, i will start the work very soon. Don't worry, we will deliver the car on time." How could it be still on time when this uncle Robert did not do anything since last month? Really doubt on what he claimed. What a lame excuse!

According to the two old workers, they will start their job irregardless whether uncle Robert will commence the welding job or not.
