Nice history Dan, how hard has it been to make the rose jointed linkage??

Thanks Andy, it was fairly easy to make, but I met a few problems along the way, and am yet to finish it. Once finished I'll put up the info on what I'll have done differently to Dar's guide.
Hurry up and fit your new bumpers.
Chill Winston, the front one needs another 2 coats or so of colour, then laquering. The back one needs painting from scratch. Its probably going to be 2-3 weeks until they're fitted.Originally Posted by iainel
you need some texture spray on them bumpers.
I've never heard of that, can you show me what the results of it look like please?

cant realy see it on a picture.just gives the textured effect to bumpers etc
OK, thanks for the suggestion, but the texture still shows through the paint
At some point the car will be receiving a bare shell rebuild, and the bumpers will be sandblasted and fillered, so I'll bear that in mind for then .
I brought the front bumper outside today so I can see the paintwork properly:
Its not brilliant, but its not bad. There are a few patches that dont have 100% coverage so I'm hoping to sort those out this afternoon.
nice work dan
