Finally got some paint on it yesterday, really happy with the results :) I could not take too many pics yet as they were not coming out too well, I might be going up to it again today so hopefully I will push it out into the open and take some better shots.

Heres some teasers though :P

These pictures are taken through various stages of the painting so some are the first coat, some are without lacure and some are with!

Looking good mate, like the indicators.

Gonna look nice when its finished :)

Cheers geez, I hope it looks good when finished too!

I didnt get a chance to go up there today so I may go up one night in the week for some pictures and possibly start putting the interior back together too, it needs a though clean as each bit goes back in place though....
