Nearly done now, just its started raining. hope to god it doesn't rain on Monday night :(

Thats when I'll get really angry because things will start going wrong :lol:

Rain = a mass of problems to deal with when transporting it there and back.

I'm so fucking happy its unbelievable :D :D

Its far from perfect, few marks from me not getting some dents perfect etc. But other than that, the finish is amazing

The paint has came out better then I though. Its metallic satin. AMAZING. Steel blue basecoat with satin laquer

The tutor at college did the final coat of laquer. i did the 3 basecoats and 1st laquer. I'm shocked at how well I've done it tbh. considering i haven't had that much practise and jumped in at the deep end and done an entire car.

My was my arm aching after though :lol:

Anyway, I need a beer :lol:

Didn't have time to do the doors as I left the prep too late and didn't tape them up in time :lol:

BUT the boot, bonnet and sunroof are all done and the doors mostly taped up ready for next week.
