At last my project has got paint and laquer on today, Im very impressed with the depth and the shine on the paint work.
Obviously it will a bit of the shine when it gets flattern down but i am buzzing at seeing it with the right colour as opposed to the primer colour.
Cant wait to get it back. :D :D :D

Yeah believe me there is going to be alot of waxoyl going into this car ive baught 2 gallons already. As for cost i cant say yet because i dont know, Its a very good friend of mine doing it and ive been rewiring his workshop to bring the costs down. The work ive had done so far is:-
New front panel
Rear Arches both sides
Inner and outer sills
Floor repaired in a few places
New sound deadning throu-out the car
Full glass out respray of body.
Still to do:-
new radiator
new expansion tank
Samco hoses
Respray doors, bonnet, boot, spoiler, bumpers and wings.
New window screen
Refit interior
Stonechip and waxoyl
Fit a new williamsclio.co.uk sticker (most important job)
so ive still got a fair bit of work just yet. If anyone is intreseted in have similar work done i can recommend my friend as being a true craftsman and is very good at what he does. Workshop is in Nr Spalding, Lincolnshie.
