We are hand painting her in the paint they use on oil rigs, for that satin 'Shatlook'. Basically, we have to move this year and haven't got time to get her painted properly. I'm gonna learn to spray myself as we have just got a big ass compressor from Aldi. And have done everything else on her, they only outside / professional help we have had is to change a ball joint.

Great work fella and good to hear that you are working out how to do everything yourself.

Is it your drive that is slanted or is one side a foot higher that the other! :shock: :lol:

 

[speedwell68]

Yes Scampi the drive is that slanted. Which is a right pain in the arse.

Thanks for the comments guys.
