After a year of testing the mechanical, structural and everything else in between integrity on our 1995 Damon Challenger 3300, it has proven itself worthy of upgrades.
Being the third owner and having all of the records from the PO's helped in us deciding to purchase it. 40k miles, all appliances and accessories have been replaced or upgraded by the PO's.
The inside needs updating but is in excellent shape. The outside needs the most help and after the midlife check on the transmission came back with 5 stars and with the few maintenance items on the 460 engine complete......we have started.
There is minor delamination due to some window leaks, a drivers door leak and failed seals around some lights and an electrical outlet. Using West systems G-flex to straighten all of that out. Will be removing all of the windows to lay in fresh butyl tape to prevent anymore issues. The windows and all seal points will also receive an outer bead of sikaflex urethane as a secondary seal point. The graphics will be gone over.....some removed and replaced, or trimmed up and cleaned up. Then the scrub down will begin for the final coating of Zeps wetlook.
Including some pics of the steps taken in handling our biggest delamination area.
Open everything up around the area to get and idea of the extent of damage....not near as bad as I thought.
Test fitment for my press.
Masked off area in preparation for the epoxy injection.
60ml syringes used with 3/8 inner diameter and outer diameter to inject and wet out the panels.
Epoxy injection complete and press is in place. Will let this set until the next morning then move on to the next one.
