PAINTING PROGRESS

Well the first layer of white paint has been applied underneath and inside. I did expect it to look better but then I always do. Ideally I would have liked more time to smooth the engine bay and other bits in the cockpit but I guess it is a rally car and not a polisher. The second and third coats will go on this weekend and then hopefully the hole car will be painted by Christmas. In-between painting I need to design and make a new fuel tank with straps, work out how to lower the shell back down and restore the princess brakes from my donor car. Apart from that I only have to rebuild the engine, make a new wireing loom, win the lottery and buy the seats, harnesses, wheels and tires, tune a second engine, buy a fire extinguisher and so on.
