Wing now finished. A lot learnt. Especially about staying perfectly clean.
Facerla g3 followed by ultimate polish on a finishing pad.

I remeber a spray shop had a load of boots(slip on style ) sent to them with free socks. First sprayer went in painted the car,boot stuck to floor,came off & new socks released lint everywhere.
Spray management then realise they better stop the order to the other 3sites.

Back to laced boots after

That’s a very nice blue

you physically cannot keep it clean enough with a make shift!
Thanks, deliberated over colour for ages but always thought the one on Haynes manual looked such a good colour. I think it’s quite close!

That colour is lovely I must admit looking forward to seeing it done

Holy crap, that looks nice!

Mine gets rustoleum spray cans... and I don't usually even sand it first, just a quick broom over

Wanted one of these but I think they’re rocking horse out of the US

So I made one!!! Not a bad end result! Not quite the same as original but came out quite smart

Lots of measuring and a test fit of the panel I’ve had to made that slots from the inner wing, under the bulkhead interior bar and onto the a pillar. It’s about there. Just need to clean the sheet and panels ready for welding.

Looks like we are ready for welding. That sandwich a pillar/inner wing panel is the trickiest thing I’ve done to date. Everything fits though!!

Thank you sir! I’m not a patch (pun intended) on some of the others on here but I learnt a lot from my last projects and have been trying to sharpen up my work and take time.
The painting is a new one for me. Lots of YouTube vids and reading
