Paint..

I also have now managed to shoot some colour onto the tub and panels. This is the first coat, shot pretty thick so it can be colour sanded back ready for a second coat.

With the colour on the car and flaws revealed I am pleased that my hours of panel work have produced an acceptable result - particularly that I managed to get the panels this way with minimal filler, considering there was so much on the car when I started!

I've already blocked back this colour coat and hopefully this weekend I'll get a second and final coats on the car. I'm going to thin the paint quite a bit and hope to get minimal orange peel and avoid final colour sanding and buffing. I've also still got to do the fron trunk and engine bay. I'll be moving the car before doing the engine bay as my folks are wanting their garage space back!
