Sorry for not much updates as i have been working away all week..

But in my absence my dad has been carrying on. The car is now ready to go to the paintshop..!

I will get some pictures when i get back home as i am still away! The only thing is that i don't think it will be ready for L2B now as the paintshop have alot of work before they can fit mine in..

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It has to be ready for L2B, who am I going to talk to on CB?! Go down to the paint shop and sort them out Scotty, lol.

Haha, I will try my best mate but i don't want to hurry him to much so he doesn't do it properly.

Ali's will be done. So i can always put the CB in hers for the day or i will see if i can use the Cooper.. :- Either way we will still be there!

Well that price sounds good then. I was budgeting about £900 just for the outside of mine to be repainted in the same colour.

I think it may just be pans and I'll prob do the sills at the same time as they had little plates welded in them to get them though my last MOT. With the floors I'm just gonna paint those in hammerite so theirs no rush to get them done before the car repainted.
