Damn!

Never put anything in writing...a barrister WILL find it!

Anyway Steve, if someone offered you a free spraybooth for the Cuda, would you tell him to shove it? :wink:

Just by way of an update and to prove that even us so called experts don't get it right every time, some of the panel repairs I've done on the Road Runner have sunk at the edges.

They have been caused where existing repairs have been made over the original paint, which being good sound minor repairs, I left well alone. The rest of the car was stripped back and even areas of bare steel have still revealed marks, so I've had to sand back again and reprime.

So, fingers crossed, I should be basecoating and lacquering on Friday...I'll take the camera.

Here we go, a couple of better pix, this is the finish straight out of the gun and I'm quite pleased. Now to bolt everything on, get it MOT'd and registered :)
