The plan was to paint the car the same color, Emerald Green Metalic, I have no obvious rust spots (been checked several times over), no major panel work other than rub back, masking, some component removal and paint. Some panels were repainted in 96 by previous owner so this job is really me being picky about getting rid of wear and tear paint chips, some fading on the left rear and small paint damage on the driver door. Also the engine cover has been in storage for 20 years, previous owner had whale tail, so it is not as faded as other general body work but does need touching up. I'll get to Paint and Custom in the next 3-4 weeks, after the long weekend and see what Lou reckons, he's a mate of a mate so you never know. I bought my car from Healey Factory 2 years ago and stay in touch with some of the guys there and have seen the quality of the work they have done, I'm only new at this game but there work is pretty good. I've had some contact with Charlie Bastisti but they are into prestige crash repair not really interested in respray jobs like mine.
Spectre - have i followed you down blackburn road on occassion?, I'm in Lower Templestowe.
cheers
