My Austin Devon project is resting now, I first want to finish my Landrover..
..I want it on the road at the end of the summer.
So here is some work I've did:
Next tings on my to-do list is stripping the doors, roof, etc etc..
So I can give everything a new layer of paint..
The pickuproof and doortops will be limestone.

Hallo Sir,
I'm using paint from Paddock (http://www.paddockspares.com)
It's very good paint, very easy to use!
I've rolled most of the interior (seatbox was Sprayed)
The exterior will also be sprayed.
Today I've did the boot the first layer

Well done, it is looking very nice, I used to run a 2a but sold it because it was to good to stand outside.
Sometimes I regret the decision. Particularly when it snows here in Mid Wales.

| How did you do that badge (last photo)? I've done old numberplates using Vaseline and a rattle can, but I'm guessing Vaseline wouldn't really do the job on those small letters. |

Hi, I've painted it with a very very small brush.. took me ages but I think worth dooing it!
After painting I've sprayed a clear coat to protect the paint...

That's a good brush job. I was thinking you must have come up with something devilishly clever and easy, wishful thinking I guess! |
