Wow that looks mint.Its a shame Karl cant paint the outside of the car cause looking at the pics of the engine bay and inside the body paint would be spot on.

True,that could be what's stopping him (and I don't want my comp to get any mucker....Lol)

Or the fact that he's that good at what he already does why stretch himself further ?

Well I have it from the horses mouth all repaired areas have been prepared for paint and are actually now the glorious hue of black (even if black ain't a colour)

So when beef gets chance to post the pics gaz has sent him along with his astounding 'narrative' skills the next stage of progress can be seen..

Cheers Gaz can't wait to see the pics mate...
