Yeh would be good mate! For a second I thought that may have been you at munchies on Friday car was kinda simular from a distance ha.....

I'll make sure the beers are cold when you do!

It's killing me this waiting to be painted part getting pretty close to the finnish line.

Not bad for only 6 months to almost do a car from ground up!

Take your time! From unhappy experience make sure the paint is truly hard & cured before you start attaching stuff to it! Can take a while despite what the painter might say.....

I ended up leaving the primer to sit for a week before I touched it again. Today been so nice it's time to get some colour on it.

Hopefully by tonight she will be ready.  :evilone:

It's all been done in the original colour codes it's wimberlton white! the inside is dark red. It just looks dark or Greeny because the shop lights are shi#

I'll get it out in the sun tomorrow and get some better pics.

Ha yeh the photos aren't the best! Was a bit worried at first how the red and white would look but looks pretty good together. It's just all been done like in the factory in a single base two pac paint.
