More photos coming midweek.

As Jeremy wrote - we are very short staffed due to winter ills and do not have time to scratch ourselves.

Andy started on the stripes on Friday. The car is taped up ready for spraying, but he had difficulty trying to get some warmth onto the panels to be able to paint the stripes.

But as Dale wrote - the car is coming up a treat.

Rocket.

This one sold yesterday as the Motor Show Shannons Auction for $36k. It looked ok from 10 feet away, and despite a few small issues it was to come with a Roadworthy Certificate.

dalex · « **Reply #111 on:** July 11, 2011, 11:02:30 pm »

It had the 5 speed by the look of the photos (manual selector and clutch), it was roped off and I could not get close.

mwizz · « **Reply #112 on:** July 11, 2011, 11:12:05 pm »

Hey Dale, that piece by itself looks great. Can't wait to see the whole thing.

Trans-Am · « **Reply #113 on:** July 12, 2011, 04:52:39 pm »

The boot lid looks cool...

Yes, I'll also be eager to see the car with all its hanging panel's in place.

Cheers,

Trans-Am:cool:

pone65 · « **Reply #120 on:** July 12, 2011, 10:51:21 pm »

MMM think Dale's getting excited

.Looking good boys.

rocket · « **Reply #121 on:** July 13, 2011, 12:32:22 am »

Yep... It is an absolute stunner!

Dale gave a bit of a clue about how it is being done when he wrote that Andy had wet rubbed the car with 1200 grit. This was done so that he could clearcoat the body and panels again after spraying the stripes. I call it sweet reflections -

Poor Andy, he must get to know these cars intimatley.

Seriously though, I had a look at it this morning & she is looking great. I am really pleased with how quick it has been done & how good a job he has is doing.
