Loking good, is the colour similar to the Orange that Volvo used on their T5's in the '90s?
I love the smell of burnt rubber and hydrocarbons in the morning, it smells of......victory.

Lovely

That is a lovely colour.

I wish I could find a good reason to paint mine that colour.

Anyway looking forward to seeing finished.

What colour interior? Tan leather would work well I think?

All the best
