The eager eyed amongst you will notice pic was originally green. Which is a bit of a shame as I do like a green d1.
The paint job is diy - a one stage product. It’s tatty in places but that’s not really too much upset - whoever did it actually didn’t do a bad job. There’s a bit of crap in it in places, bit of flake off but it’s an old Landy.
Much like old red cars from past years, it had a dusty tired, faded top layer. Without being too aggressive I gave it a once over.
Clay bar and one pass of farcela (sp?) not chasing full paint correction. I may chase it a bit further in future. I went with a light pad and lowish speeds to prevent too much thickness loss. I think I could get it beaming if i wanted as did a spot of high speed cut on bonnet and it popped.
I may be banished, but, I think im going to chequer plate the bonnet. It’s got some kind of solvent damage on the paint right where chequer plate would cover it. Also means I can throw a bags/drinks and my rifle bipod on bonnet. Anyway…
Oil pressure and temp sensor gauges have turned up, I’ve half built aux fuse box and the gauges and parrot phone thing will be going in a mud pod above stereo. 2 in one as it will cover holes in dash
