Because the Alfa floor panels are only available in left hand drive we had to try and save the original piece that has cut outs for the floor pedals.
A bit of a pain but Andrew is making it work.

Matildas poptop is protected for years to come.
This UV, scratch, chip, and chemical resistant coating won't need any maintenance except for the occasional wash when doing the rest of the car.
The product used is Mipa 2k acrylic tintable bedliner.
The product is mixed together along with 100ml of colour, which in this case is Antarctica White.
Instead of using the usual schutz gun we used a conventional spray gun with a 2.5mm tip for a smoother finish.

Its ready to be fitted and upholstered with new canvas and headliner.

Matildas poptop coating was pretty dry and thin so the best thing is to roll a coat of pr250 epoxy which is super thick when no reducer is added.
It fills the little cracks and pin holes.
Once dry this will be sanded smooth with the DA.
Another couple of coats of epoxy will be sprayed on and we will be using a tintable 2k urethane bedliner style finish sprayed through a 2.5mm tip spray gun for a super smooth but ultra durable coating.

Vincent epoxied up , this process gets repeated after all metal repairs are finished.
The roof and gutters is the majority of work on this one as the sills and floors are in excellent shape.
