Looks good enough from over here, now what you need is a nice central
locking kit
.............. Anchor supplies have bronze green at £40 gall you can apply it
with just about anything except a runcible spoon

wait, and mould will grow on them...


Actually, brush painting would work well, with a good brush and the right
paint. should just need to bust the glaze on the red with some fine-ish wet
and dry.

Nice job on the rebuild, BTW - looks plenty straight.

Get it nice and muddy, then plant something.

If Your specification is vague or imprecise, you'll likely get what you
asked for not what you wanted!

Do not say it cannot be done, rather what is needed to do it!

I don't really know I have the equipment but the biggest job I've done
thus far is a pair of wings , Steve Hull is the bloke with the paint
knowledge and advice
http://www.stephen.hull.btinternet.co.uk/index.html I'll bet that one tin
would be about enough but have a good read of his site first its going to
save you a lot of problems later you can Ping Steve on AFL he's a regular
Cheers Derek

Nothing to do with painting...
I just had a look at your photos - impressive, but for some reason I thought
UK was metric yet your speedo is in MPH. ...silly me.
