    Poor Kurt, stitched up with an entry for Motorvation 37. You gotta feel sorry for the bloke. But what better way to give him a kick in the arse to make some progress and start on the jobs he's been putting off for a long time!
    Now its time to get cracking on the roof repair. First thing's first; Patch the hole, smooth it out, and get it in primer... Wish us luck!

    I reckon it must be time the VR VS made a resurgence in popularity. They were big 20 years ago, but tailed off when the VE arrived. Can’t remember the last time I seen one featured in Street Machine 😮

      Vr vs have certainly gained popularity in the last few years. Theres some crazy builds that have come out based mainly off hsv and ss variants. It's great to see!

    while the roofs bare metal I'd recommend washing the roof with deoxitine then neutralising the deoxitine with warm water. blow it off quickly it will go a rainbow color. deoxitine neutralises rust. the rust in the pits should be removed by sand blasting or wire wheel before epoxy priming. you can leave the panel in deoxitine for a while if covered up with warm blankets etc. good luck mate you doing a good job.

      Thanks so much for the advice mate. I wish i knew earlier as I now realise I have buggered the rust removal process when I left the black spots after using the deoxidiser acid wash. The whole car needs panel and paint so the roof will get done again properly then. Some things are best learnt the hard way unfortunately. Haha. Thanks again for the solid advice!

      @@TorqHub no worries mate any time I myself learnt the hard way,once you understand the process it becomes alot more easier, also the deoxitine will neutralise the paint stripper as well if paint stripper isn't neutralised it will continue to slowly lift the paint. good luck

    Not looking forward to doing all this shit myself in the coming months. Be looking at the comments waiting for the experts to tell you what you did wrong so I know to make all the same ‘mistakes’ as well 😂

      Yeah it's not the greatest task to take on in a fabrication based shed honestly. I already realise I'll have to re do this roof at a later date( rust removal process wasnt adequate) but it will suffice for now. Thanks for watching dude, appreciate the support!!

    The start of the vid boy I have the same hat and shirt as Kurt. That's a killer effort for under the pump. I love that I'm not the only one that has to do 6 bunnings runs in one day when I have "everything I need" Motivation is a firm incentive to get her back in one color and parked up. Hope you boys had a great new year and heres to many more vids. 🍺

      That's it Tim! The hardest part about making progress for me is just getting started. We're slowly chipping away at it and learning as we go. Good practice for when it gets done again as a complete panel and paint job at a later date! Cheers Tim!

    There is only one way to learn, unfortunately. And learning to paint is a time consuming exercise.
    Can't wait to see this finished off.
