state of play at the moment, got to do door tops, then a second coat all over.  the other half gave me a hand to rub down, she decided to leave her hand prints on the dry paint!!!   |

I actually like that handprint there, I'm guessing it would be hand to laquer over it though with it being made with dust.

What the hell have you done to that poor car?, it look lovely when you first got it. That’s another straight classic that has been vandalised, you should be ashamed of yourself.
Although I am prominently a lover of standard looking classics I greatly appreciate the efforts of of the talented people on this site. I understand that peoples tastes are different and am all for the street rod rat look but vandalism is vandalism.
I am all for youngsters enjoying the classics but please think before you do anything drastic to your car.
Paul

If you have nothing good to say, don't say it. That has ALWAYS been the rule on RR and it's what makes this forum what it is. Opinions are one thing, what you are saying is beyond that. And frankly it's insulting. Go and have a good look through of the RR manifesto before you cry vandalism again.

The car's looking great, I'd like to see the graphics back on again.
Hope to get to Yarmouth on Sunday PM.
