No, he is older man. Very small "one man company". He takes 100euro 4 wheel coating. Zink + powder coating + clear coat.
three days on the road, +2000km. Cold weather (-15 - -20dec. celcius) all over there. That´s good, not so many hang-a-round men anywhere.

Same here in Sweden ,if you want good corrosion protection. We did this one for the Funnycar Ragnarök.
Funnycar frame + halibrands !!!! That´s Rock´n´Roll. Now tires mounted on. Last 7-8days I have done nothing in garage. Too much dayjob travelling.... Wheels are bolted under that 5w coupe. Yes, I need to chop it, maybe 5", maybe 5.5". Now looks like "lighthouse". Aulis
Just a heads up,powder paint has a very hard time to penetrate into tight places. We usually add wet paint or hard wax in those areas.
Merry Christmas. We are just spend time, enjoy on sofa and play ice-hockey came or playing cards. 8-9y old picture , but good basic for Christmas card. Aulis

Aulis Today arrived 4 DeWalt dwe-4057 angle grinder. I have had earlier many dewald and some makita. Last grinder was dewalt 4051, it´s basicly same than later model 4057.
