Cool!
Just need to spray the rest of the car to match 
How long did it take you to learn to spray well enough to do the lid? |

Johnboy - I doubt it!
mt - it takes no time to learn how to spray the lid.... spraying it well is another matter!

In all seriousness tho...
Next is the lower rear panel (which houses the rear lights). This has a large rust hole in it - which I'll need to refabricate and weld.
Nasty... but cool.

Hi there Bob,
Nice to see your paint job, it looks nice from the photos.
Have you had practice on welding or will you have it done by a body shop?
Hang on there pal - keep up the good work.
Regards

Ed, it had the towbar on there when I got the car. It's on my list of things to remove. The 33 isn't any good at towing anything anyway (no torque).
Paul, I'll get there.... you'll see!
Bob
