Pictures at an Exhibition

Nope not some 70's Prog Rock. But could be almost as unfathomable!

Took some photos of the inside of my German Tank to see what condition it's condition is.

So not too bad a small bit of surface rust in a couple of places. Biggest problem is the ding on the really awkward profile on the right hand side just underneath the KI of SUZUKI.

Used a LIDL special inspection camera. There is a reason Bernadette wont let me into that place unaccompanied :lol: :lol:

That looks good. My special insertion camera gave up the ghost fairly quickly (but it was an ebay special, not Lidl).

Are you going to line it anyway? I was going to get one of the Tank Care Products kits (not far from you) to do the Yamaha GT80, though that has some nasty other liner pealing off in it at the moment, and under that it looks a little rusty. Small tank so only a £40 kit needed for that.

Not sure. Certainly a rust inhibitor first. Got to see what I can do about the ding as sorting it out after lining might cause it to fail.
Might take it to a painter to see what can be done about it. Or buy a tub of P38 :lol:
