Plans are to go from a ratty 11 window version of the one on the right to a rough version of the one on the left.
Have another day off work tomorrow so i hope to have the bottom colour all done so i can finish off the rest on sunday.
Cheers,
Bob

Wow, that'll look brilliant and really different.

Yep, like black above the belt line. Helps to lose any contrast between the colour and the rubbers and makes 'em look mean

she is all in primer now

still has a lot of her bumps and bruises left as i don't have the time or soon the space to get her straight but at least she is sealed now.
the bottom colour will be the 2k primer with a couple coats of 2k clear with the final one on dry to take some shine off (i'm rough hey) lol.
top will be straight black.
shouldn't look too bad but i guess we will know soon.
cheers,
bob

Looking good bud, does the new house have a shed?

Hi Bruce
It Has but only a very small one, big enough for a beetle and a work bench. But a good friend who is also mad about dubs lives only 3 houses away and he has a big shed, so my welder etc will live there.
