Machine demo Lee, high reach work for the higher stuff.

i have just taken the car to the Neils paint shop.

i will be popping in there throughout the week to take pics of Neils progress with the car.

maybe take between 10-14 days to complete the whole car,then its just got to get the engine fitted.

cannot wait to see it done.

just a few of the car stripped down a bit with all the kit off etc...

the car is spotless around the arches,no rot in there at all,just a bit of surface rust by the rear light,probably were water has sat for a while when its beed stored.

the painter,Neil, said it was one of the cleanest he has seen for ages as they normally rot under the kit,even underneath,no rot etc....














i will get more in a few days.
