here`s a pic for the greedy guys around who like 2 humps instead of 1

Gary, it's the Classic car resturation show (thanks Dave)...PAT

The cars looking good, Gary said you may have a badge idea or something for the Sammio's. PAT

santa`s been and done bit spraying for me, over the xmas break.....sure i asked for silver.....

Looking nice 'n' shiny.

Is it burgundy or red?

I thought from your earlier post it was going to be a darker burgundy colour, or is that just a trick of the flashgun?

I'd be interested to know the paint code either way...

Oh, and it's interesting to see a Bactrian Sammio for a change.

If you squat down tilt your head to the right and squint a bit "it's nothing like a golf or silver" it's better than a golf and red, nice one done a good job Mel with a little help from im? Pat

its burgundy ral 3004.....its a trick of the lights, mel got a nice shinny finish, and thats the dry look, its only had 2 coats so far, another 2 and then some laquer, then i give mel a cup of tea.....pat i can send mel down to rub urs down...." the car i mean"

Thanks for that, I'd love to see a shot taken in daylight without the flash.

Thanks for the offer but I got a new toy for xmas a "random orbital sander" just sorting the garage out a bit to create a bit of room.

liking the look of that colour Gary....

more pics please !!

got few picks outside today,hope this shows the colour bette[IMG]http://i1232.photobucket.com/albums/ff370/mullberry/paintedrear003.jpg[/IMG]r.

only had 2coats so far, and has gone back inside for a flatten down with 1500,then 3 more coats.....hopefully it get a few shades darker by then.

Looking good and I think the colour's going to look absolutely stunning once it's flatted and polished.

Mine is likely to be only a few shades away from yours as I'm pretty settled on RAL 3032 pearl ruby red. I could be swayed once I've seen yours all polished though...

Nice colour! It looks a lot like mine from the pics, but then again i know how different it can look in real life.
Having fun sanding around the two humps?

Just looked at the pic's again: did you practice on your garage door first to make sure you liked the colour?

looking good, mulberry

You've got yourself a nice bonnet line... also a nice dash, good shape.

Looks good. I like the double head fairings.

Love the shut lines of your bonnet, how did you go about getting it like that?

having a few problems with my humps today, the paint has lifted in corner around the humps this is the 2nd time now...aghhhhh first was in primmer, thought i had beat it.....HELP......any ideas welcome....i use pannel wash, and make sure its bone dry,,,,and the temp is at 70f ish...

pops 36 grit sand disc



just used a sanding disc folded over and rub between the two. till i got the line. took a few hrs tho...

Is the paint lifting from the primer or is the primer coming off too?

It's a shame that it has pulled up. But, better mow than when the job is complete. Best wishes. John
