Should all be fitted up this week ready for the Mot.

At least this gives you an idea what yours will look like.:thumb:

[mikmiglia]

Yes the silver wheels will set this one off. Pop in sum time for a bacon sandwich .

[davecymru]

Nice! While I do think that my next project may be BRG, you gotta love red as even my 4 yr old knows that "red ones go faster" :)

[Nike55]

Very good :eusa_clap: I always bake for twenty prior any bodywork , its not worth the risk .

Ok, a good way to relax before painting I guess. What do you prefer to do, vol au vents?, cup cakes?

[mikmiglia]

I am a master in baking ,and i find its calms me down before the big spray job :preggers:

[tlrtone]

I am a master in baking ,and i find its calms me down before the big spray job

hmm, I always thought you were the master-baking type.....

[mikmiglia]

You know the type , lol i have sent you a message, its too naughty for the public to see:bathbaby:

[Nike55]

I sent you one also Mike.

'The rules are very simple. We have picture which contains a compromising scene and unpleasant details, which could wreck a man's career. But, the victim may email me at any point and stop the disclosure. But remember the money increases the longer the picture is shown. So the longer you leave it...the more you have to pay! So now, with the clock at £300 this week 'Stop the Picture' visited Poole in Dorset...

We don't morally censure, we just want the money....so here's the address to send it to:

BLACKMAIL
BEHIND THE HOT WATER PIPES
THIRD WASHROOM ALONG
VICTORIA STATION

How brave are youi?

[mikmiglia]

You are a complete nutter , :lol: pm on the way . That pic is a make or brake one . you decide :boink:

[Nike55]

I'll leave you alone to get on with the 'Red One'..

:tea:

[mikmiglia]

Its now purple :eusa_drool:

[Paul L]

The red looks good Mike. :cool:

Can I ask is there a reason for masking the lights, rather than removing them?

Cheers, Paul. :)

[mikmiglia]

Cheers paul, Basicaly the reason was me being lazy !! . They have got to come off anyway, the rear ones were old tired units with the base rubbers missing , and the fronts still have to have the chrome rims on.

[garyh]

Will there be finished pics tomorrow? Looks great.

[mikmiglia]

[Barry Stard]

Hi Mike. I will be calling in to your unit this week if that's ok with you? Prob Wednesday or Friday, any good? Cheers Barry

Hi Yes i put the paint on this one. The chevrolet has had a roof chop, and come in for a black metal flake paint job.

[mikmiglia]

Hi Barry i have responded to your message , see you this week .

[mas123mas]

Mikmiglia, have you any pictures of the engine bay, showing bulkhead and inner wings etc....

[PJ GRABOWSKI]

That Chevy sounds cool .
How much have you chopped it by ? and any updated pictures of the car would be great.
I am reckoning its a long term project if its still with you?
