7.30pm and still painting heres a few pics of todays progress
hubs sand blasted and cleaned


undercoat



here is the colour straight of the gun i known its not standard but i love it



big thanks to slospeed for the paint code

looks good, when you go to put the rims on the hubs, either sand that paint off where the rim sits or I use one of those little gasket removers on a right angle die grinder. Otherwise you want to check your wheel nuts every 50k's or so initially, but even then pretty regular untill all the paint wears off between the hub and the rim.

its done pics arnt the best but heres a few

You don't muck around do you. I would still be scratching my head trying to figure out where to start.
It's looking very nice so keep it up & plenty of pics please.

brings back memories, painted a kw model that colour 30 yrs ago, you're doin a top job in such a short time, seen no piccys of the motor recently, bet you're gonna surprise us with a nice soundin' 6v53.. ..jk

Nice sounding 6v53?
I'm a v8 man :-X

That green looks similar to the new Gitsham trailer I bought once. Looked shocking behind a red truck!
