keithm Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 How can I easliy clean and paint the upper surface of the chassis with the body still in place - just need to tidy up the existing paint and remove surface rust. Thanks Keith Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tony Millward Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 In short Keith, you can't. You can only touch up the parts you can see (engine bay for example), but to do the job properly..you need the body off. Cheers Tony Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RogerH Posted September 4, 2014 Report Share Posted September 4, 2014 Hi keith, as Tony states, not really do'able. The gap varies from nothing to apprx 1/4". Your simplest best bet is to use an aerosol wax spray and do this at the end of the summer season. If you have a compressor you could try and blast air into the gap to dry it down before the wax. In theory separating the body form the chassis is easy - undo a few bolts and off it pops . In practice there are a few problems but is do'able. Give yourself a week to do it and keep all the packing in the same place. I'm actually thinking about doing the same very soon Roger Quote Link to post Share on other sites
