Later today I will take some after shots. I`m not trying to win any prices here, but it can be nice to clean of most of the dirt and goo

WOW! That's not wrenching... that's dismantling! But then those Norweigians are a little extreme... LOL!

Hey Andrew

The trick is not being afraid to pull things apart

Today I stripped off most of the rust protectrion on one of the front fenders, and now they weigh 900g different Aprox 2kg total weight loss just from the front fenders! No wonder a fully rigged 928 is somewhat heavy.

Beautiful.

I didn't think of the protection under the fender.

Mineral spirits helps with the cosmoline.
