        He tells me it will be ready for the beginning of the week if the scuttle panel arrives from Escort Tec tomorrow.

                The paint is its original paint and was starting to show signs of age with little marks starting to appear under the surface. After talking to the painter was decided that it would be easier and better in the long term to do a full outer paint job. The car is for keeps so glad that I have a nice solid shell with a nice thick layer of paint being applied.

                You know how it is Nick, you start of small and end up bringing out the cheque book

                Would have painted it a faster colour, but decided that speed wasn't important and that The Lakes Tour would already be full of those common (but quick!!) Yellow cars
