The decision has now been made regarding........
.................. “The Flying Banana”, as of March 2019 she will be going into the paint shop at AM Restorations in Plymouth. I have said for a long time that I would love to get her resprayed. Having had 5 encounters, 4 with other vehicles and 1 wall, she needs some TLC. This car has saved my life and now it’s my time to say a Thank You.
Once back with me she will be garaged and only attend local shows. 202,500 miles and still an absolute joy to drive. And will still show a clean pair of heels to the unwary who may tailgate her.

Got a phone call......................
.................................. from A.M. Restorations confirming the date for Banana to go in for her paint on March the 4th.
Work to be carried out. Front and rear screens to be removed. This allows the paint and lacquer not to have a”edge” against the rubbers. All side trim to be removed and sprayed separately. Including door handles. Front and rear bumpers removed. The panels that go rusty on the edges of doors are to be replaced even with the carbon wrap on the still have gone rusty. I have 4 brand new ones to be fitted. Rear lip spoiler removed. Rear and front lights to be removed. Headlights to be polished along with the one rear light that has faded. Paint in the door jambs. There have been a couple of occasions where people have got out and caught the belt buckles in the door. They are not going to spray under the bonnet or in the boot area but theses areas will be thoroughly cleaned. Final job once painted she will get a machine polish. Expected to be off of the road for 6 weeks. Once home she will then get some extra work carried out by Rick Bhullar. Illuminated kick plates plus the LED lighting renewed. Plus under bonnet and boot LED lighting to be replaced. Once finished she will only come out and attend local shows. The plan is to sell the Bear, Redfive and my body to pay for it all.
