The Millie's looking great, Mike. I got my new cat today from Rochester. I'd forgotten how much fun they are to drive. Going to take her for a proper ragging around some bends tomorrow. 😁

[@mec-tec]

Thanks so much ! Great to hear you have a new Cat, hope you have lots of fun with it ! 👍

[@WaddedBliss]

@@mec-tec Got a new tyre and the tracking done on the way home. It was drifting horribly when I changed lanes on the M25. Much better now. I squirted it up from 30 to 60 in a couple of seconds earlier, just for a bit of fun. 😂

Cracking job mate, you certainly dont skimp on any of the work youve done. Filler takes quite a while to get right but its worth it. Looks 100% better. Best of luck when you check other side

[@mec-tec]

Thanks so much ! Glad you like it ! Its deffo time consuming but well worth it 👍👍👍

i think you should have used a guidecoat when flattening with the 1200 grit paper.

[@mec-tec]

Hi, yes I think you could be right there 👍

[@jamesrguk]

I knew you wouldn't be able to resist flatting back that hairline mark 😅

[@mec-tec]

🤣🤣 haha yes i couldnt sleep at night otherwise 🙈🤣🤣👍👍

Can you use a different tune please s this music just drones on you need something different.

[@deanmathers4483]

Is there a specific method when tightening the axle brackets to the underbody as there is a little bit of play, I wasn't sure if they are supposed to fully tightened when r cars weight is fully on the wheels/ground?

[@mec-tec]

Hi yes you are correct about the weight being on the axle when you tighten them, when i moved the axle stands under the axle in the video, that put the weight on the suspension, so it would be the same as being on the ground, hope this helps 👍👍

[@timh301]

Really nice job with the paint. Did you use 1k or 2k lacquer?

[@mec-tec]

Thanks so much ! I used 2k Lacquer in a can with the ring pull activator on the bottom 👍

[@jonflounders1541]

[@mec-tec]
