Thanks John, can't wait to see yours in the new paint.

Mine's not as good as yours and several other ground up restos on here but yes I'm well pleased with the paint job from DC coachworks, especially the blocking, and considering that the starting point was far from perfect and that we agreed on doing the best of the situation, whilst keeping some sort of budget in mind :roll: .

Also very pleased that my local painter really did a splendid job matching Steve's, virtually impossible to distinguish from the existing paint finish and no way to tell where its been blended.

A shame there won't be any time to rag it until end of Aug early Sep :-(
