I'd like to claim the primering is finished.. but... not quite!
I wasn't happy with the bottom of the drivers door so I've refillered it. Much flatter now, just needs another slap of primer.
I also still have the 'glass hood to sand and fill and sand and fill and sand and fill...
However, the good news is, every other bit of the car is DONE!! Ready for paint

The original burgundy mate, as per the front panel.
I'm still mulling over a contrasting colour for the sides...

Nice it is staying the same colour...... It has been in the club for so long now, it is kind of a part of MMA history!

My mate Doug is coming round tomorrow to help with final prep.
After concreting some bits of driveway, I've masked and guide coated the whole car ready.
My new kick-ass compressor is plumbed in and ready for action and I'm enjoying a well-earned cider after a good hard day's work
