D(very) Special Rejuvenation
Chris,
Thanks for the obvious effort put into this thread, very inspirational. The admiration from the attractive red-head no doubt assisted. Was it really all performed in the driveway (the painting and assembly, not the admiration), and was the scuttle painted in acrylic lacquer or K&H acrylic enamel? Those spray cans certainly help amateurs like me get a good finish on those underbits, where it probably doesn't matter much anyway, except to me.
The blue is superb and very close to the colour of my (now deceased) dad's Rover 2000 way back in 1964. It is certainly a nineteen sixties colour and probably would'nt look so good on a modern car except say a Nissan Micra.
I look forward to your next project, when the starter motor fails!
