Re: Sea Blue 66 Restocal


Hi there mate. Couldn't make it to chalvington this year which i was gutted about as its the first i've missed in about 5 years. As for the car, been working on it a fair bit recently, interior is prepped ready for primer, and the outside shell is getting close. Doors and bonnet still require a bit of work and tbh will most likely be done start of next year. Goal is to have the body in paint by end of year, so i can start on the rebuild.

Well not much to update as i've been prepping the car for paint and collecting a few bits for it so not much to show. However i did get a chance to practice my paint skills at the weekend as i'm helping my dad to restore his series II Li125 Lambretta - not Vw i'm afraid but air cooled emoticon . Bike was sprayed in cellulose with a turbine HVLP gun in a Gazebo!

Out of the Gun finish. Quite orange peely but happy to be honest. Bike will be colour sanded and polished later
