3 more coats of paint and I'm much happier.

So i thought bugger it. I draped 2 drop sheets over the roof and down the windows and taped along the bottom of the windows. Happy with the pillars. Didnt take long to sort that out.

I hit the panels with the random orbital and 320 grit and flattened off the paint which also didnt take to long then started again.
I used a bit more thinner and tuned the gun a little better. I flash coat and 2 heavy coats. Weather was perfect to paint.

Very nice job darren. Looks about as white as the pin striping of my charcoal GQ after the last trip - bastard!!!!!!
Looks s#!t hot Daz, can't wait to see it all together.
N15 track looked awesome in the snow, I was hoping for some footage of the river crossing but. . Or any pics? ?
As wicked as all the tracks were the other weekend was all pretty stress free being crazy dry at the mo, different story in the wet. . .

I can't imagine the DOT have greater powers than the police when it comes to entering someones propertyQuote:

So just went out into the light of day to have a look at this car. I resigned myself to giving it a cut today just to get the final blemished out.
Wow! Just Wow! I aint touching this! It will well and truly do. I was going to try ans cur it to get it to where it already is!! Game on. Very happy. Forgive me a couple of small blemishes.

Fantastic job only thing I wonder about is that dead alien on the floor in the shed ???
Loaded up the 5 x 37inch treps into the trailer and took them to the tyre shop today. Strip all tyres. Clean all beads as a couple where a little rusty and not holding air. Balance. Bead tac.
So ol mate said yeah no dramas mate being them down. So i did.
Fark their big! Fark.....
You look worried John? If its not going to work its all good mate ill head down the road.
Nah no worries mate. Easy.
Kool.
Went back to collect them at 5pm.
Ghee they where big! We have taken them around the corner to the truck tyre place cause our balancer couldnt balance them!!
Oh
Yeah they fitted on the machine but the machine could not spin them fast enough to balance!!
I went back at 6pm and they where ready to go.
Cost me $40 a wheel.
37s are no good anymore. Time for 40s....
I know right!!! 37s are soo yesterday!!Quote:
