Right... lets get things organized:
I will be removing the front bumper mounts, battery tray, and all other brackets in the engine bay from the ABS pump forward.
The ABS will stay in place for obvious reasons.
Then, while you take those parts for sandblasting, I will remove all front bits and electrical wiring of the lights, coil, radiator fan etc and begin preparation for welding.
You have a couple of places in the inner wings from the wheel side, not the engine bay, that need a bit of work.
I will scrape the underseal off so Mario can weld a couple of those pieces as well.
Now, Mario suggested we paint the engine bay in mat white, not gloss paint, because the rest of the paint in there is mat anyway, and I agree.
The front lower section of the front panel will be opened up, repaired and welded, and then it will be treated with waxoyl prior to painting, to ensure that all cavities are treated.
Right now, all of your cavities are filled with dirt. Thats all gonna go away.
I'm taking Mario's keys to the shop and I'll start working on it as soon as possible.
Meanwhile Mario can start working on the front lower section.
Dont worry, its gonna be better than new
The only thing that worries me is that your front bonnet is quite rusted where the hinges bolt on.
Thats something you need to think about if you are bringing any new panels for this car in the future.
