Test drove my new 12 tonne press. I pressed out the front wheel bearings and control arm bushings.
Made all the yuckey, rusty underpinnings beautiful again.
I washed all the underpinnings with Varsol in the parts washer, then wire brushed them with an angle grinder, then hosed them down with some flat black paint.
Look closely and you can see the MX-3 suspension bits hanging from the rafters.
The hubs ready for new bearings. Removing the old ones was a breeze with the press.
I gave the engine compartment another coat of paint, (I should have masked it off when i primmer-ed the shell). I gave the inner fenders a coat of rubberized rock-guard too.
My daily driver 323 borrowed the MX-326's wheels for the summer. I painted it four years ago, It really needs another coat of flat black!
