In this episode of Restore It, the plan changes slightly from the first episode, the chassis is mounted on the rotisserie but not before a small issue is sorted. The last bit of shot blasting is completed and the whole chassis gets some proper protection for the time being. And finally, the first of the rear quarters to come from the donor car is stripped of its excess metal.
