Default Still struggling along!

Delays and delays again I'm afraid to report.

I did manage to get a little bit of progress done today, however, it was one of those bits that has been sitting about waiting patiently for a bit of attention.

I'm calling this bit a "heater director" - not sure what Volvo call it but it directs the warm air from the heater to your feet or to the ducting for the windscreen

The flap was removed ages ago (not sure where that is actually so that could be the next delay!) and I vowed to get the main housing in the sand blaster ASAP. That was months ago - still better late than never I guess =>





^^^nearly always looks worse then it is =>



Bit more derusting with the Rustyco and then another quick wazz in the sand blaster and then a quick squirt of epoxy (and see how long that takes to dry) before a top coat.
