You could always try your local college of f e, If they have a bodywork section they may do it for the cost of the paint and a few pints for the lads.

I’ve tried blowing down the air line once before to power one of my DA’s but gave up when I went light headed. :cry: :(

Didn’t spend that much on a compressor 30 cfm with a drier only cost me £3500 lol.

ok cheers lads - near brands hatch mate, will send you a PM!

Well, theres some scabs of rust here and there but nothing major, i can rub it down etc so its ready to paint etc.

I take it metallic is more expensive than solid but would like British Racing Green if poss, just wanted an idea of cost so i can save up as i have just spent about 900 quid on her!

Cheers
Matt
