not to worried about the brand though Ford would be good, all i'm after is a good finish and when people see it they will rocognise it as Cosworth Moonstone Blue (like the Sapphire cossie). The car is "Petrol Blue" at the moment but looks tired so I thought of my favourit Ford Colour. How long does this sort of job take?
