Looks fab! Just out of interest how much did you pay for the re-spray? Was it all over - or just parts?

Thanks

It was a full respray. My pal owns a bodyshop so i got a fantastic price and i helped with the prep work and wetsanding and machine polishing once completed.

This was the reason it was painted. I bought it from a dealer for a bargain price as every panel bar the roof was scratched. I like getting tatty cars and bringing them up to scratch.

Here it is after its painted before all the masking was removed and it was wet sanded and polished up.

Wheels were also powder coated and i refurbished the centre caps. I had bought new ones but they were to small, so i took the old badges out, used the new badges on the old caps and painted up in silver. Ford moondust silver i have in the shed matched a treat. Hub centres and brake calipers were painted and arches cleaned and treated with bilthamber underseal and wax.

Good work. Hopefully see it if you attend the Kirkcaldy meet on the 11th. See what I did there?

Sorry won't make the meet, long drive to the NEC the next day and back up Sunday night. Will try and get to one soon.

Awesome job there - your very lucky with knowing someone in a paintshop too!
