Well I know this is already a known car on here but with a day off today and the god's smiling favourably on me I thought I would break out the flap wheel and DA and see how bad the rear arches were. Hit them with some jenolite afterwards and was quite happy to throw a bit of paint at it and see where my ideas were going. Shame I have no skills to potatoe chop it But plan is the black to where you can see it with either white or dark gery still for the top, a red stripe to break it up, red arch wells and white banded steels or deep dish rims with chrome, black or maybe red caps. Here is where the weather got me to, apologies if you can see the runs on the o/s quater it started to rain . Any thoughts are welcomed

Faster. Faster. Until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death.
