Rear hatch and engine lid going to get finished while the weather is on my side but the rest will have to wait. I’ve got plenty of bits and pieces to paint while the sun is out so I can start some assembly over the cooler months.

Engine lid done and ready for colour sanding. Rear hatch ready for the Pearl white…

Got the pearl white sprayed on the body. Pretty happy, can’t wait to see it colour sanded and buffed

You must have had some time off work to be smashing it out this fast, I bet you’re glad you got it done while the weather is on your side, looks fantastic mate

Love it! How long before you can start sanding Rusty? It’s pretty cold down here.

I went back over this whole thread. Some killer work, hours and dedication have gone into this. Gotta be proud of what you have done. Looking so good man. Hope you keep the roll on now it’s kinda in the home run stage

Thanks all for the kind words, I’m pretty pumped to have the body painted. I had a few days off here and there when the weather was favourable to make sure I got it done. Rear hatch now has the Pearl white done as well.

That will be it for the doors until later in the year, as I’ve got to get some other bits painted so that I can start some assembly over the next few months.

Marvellous, cool colours.
Hopefully all those painful little jobs to finish off fall into place for you.
