chap foose 2 Posted March 2, 2014 That is looking so straight, Paul. I thought for a moment you were going to leave the polyester finish as the authentic orange peel Ford finish! I've just received a load of photos of a Californian Mk 1 that's never been re-painted, never been undersealed and with no rust. The paint in the engine bay is full of runs and orange peel, and the underside is a little white overspray but mainly red primer, especially the middle of the car between the chassis rails! How authentic will you go??!! When you come to spray the green stripe remember to fit the rear lights and mask them off before painting....Check out Colin's A Frame car(also not been re-painted) in the container if you don't believe! Keep up the great work. Mark Cheers Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chap foose 2 Posted March 2, 2014 Blocked down the polyester and started flatting the underside of the car. Will be primed within the next week or so.Once its primed I wont be posting any more pics of it. I cant say why but all will be revealed in 2015. Put the spot weld markings back on the inner wings and under rear arches ect. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lotuscops 73 Posted March 2, 2014 ...................Once its primed I wont be posting any more pics of it. I cant say why but all will be revealed in 2015. Not an 'unveiling' surely.... or are you painting it pink ? :rolleyes: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TinaInTheForest 1 Posted March 2, 2014 I reckon Sherwood green with a white stripe?! Colin's Monaco Red car looks so good, that must be a tempting way to go....or the Alan Mann Ferrari Rosso Red with gold bits. Now I'm all out of ideas!! Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
