Last weekend I went to Beaulieu for the annual auto jumble which was a good day out. I collected an order of parts from AH4H which should allow me to get the car ready for paint. The order included all the bits I need for the windscreen pillars which will enable me to fit the screen to the car before I paint it to check that it fits. I most definitely don't want to be making serious modifications once painted to get the screen in. I now have the full sections of the cockpit trim as well and the door stops.
So, I need to finish the filler work on the front wings, front shroud, bonnet and offside door then prime the whole car. I also need to fit the windscreen, door check straps and cockpit trims. Not much then. I have 4 weekends before I want to paint the car so I think I need to up my game a little.
This weekend I finished prepping the rear wings, shroud and boot lid and put them in primer. However, I didn't have enough primer so I will have to rub them down again and redo them when I have more paint, damn. Oh well. I did selectively paint the shroud with most of the available paint so I think that can be fitted to the car for the final time.
I can't imagine how good it will be to have it painted.
