Did you buy the rattle can off the shelf?? Or custom made jobbie?

As far as i know you cant get it off shelf, i used left over paint from the pot i have from it's paint job.

And now you say bout the paint off self etc, i did see a new shape Corsa d in a very similar color to Jamaica yellow earlier, wonder if there re-doing it?

Yeah theres 2 in my local Vauxhall dealers that look like they're Jamaica yellow, and there's a Corsa C sxi withe the irmscher chin spoiler and skirts driving about locally that also looks to be jamaica yellow. I keep getting ideas in my head to get one and paint the bottom half dark grey to do a Nova SR type rep lol

Well did some more to the battery try today, think it's ready by midweek for bat to go back in.

Paint looks good scott nice job really like this mate + rep for keeping it standard too.

Damo.

Batteries back in, Fuel pipes all sorted, air filter on, 1/4 choke!.... starts first time one small turn! lol love they old beaut!

So i popped it in for an MOT tonight, i hope it passes no issues, should do "fingers crossed" and then tax it, place the missis on the insure so we can use them both to shows etc.

Scott

just seen this now total awsomeness (if thats a word)

Nice one mate, lovely car and my favourite colour, wish I still had my yellow sr :(

Sailed through its mot again, need to replace the wiper blades though, Karl the mechanic said one's worn, lol Ive not used them in 8 month's? no wonder one's on it's way out..

Tax it tomo, then insure the missis on it.
