[@andydarbo7450]

spray painting at this level must be like juggling, to not touch the airline or any part of your body one the fresh painted areas while working your way around the car and panels your painting honestly hats off to that guy

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Yep , Gavin sure knows what he's doing 👌

[@craigorford9932]

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Thanks Craig :-)

[@chrisTiFur76]

Absolutely stunning paintwork Lee 🙌🏻🙌🏻

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@trevors4595]

Awesome. 👏👏👏

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Thanks ✌️

[@seanyharp]

Car look awesome Lee...I would not have had those jacking holes on show though

[@Cossie.Mk1]

There's no way around it Sean , they have to be positioned there as they are tied into the roll cage. They're very common in the rally scene and I actually quite like the look ! , I do intend to get some plugs 3D printed through to prevent dirt / water ingress and these plugs should make the holes look a little less obvious

[@seanyharp]

@@Cossie.Mk1 Ok cool...yes good idea with the plugs

[@davidtreharne8782]

looks the dogs Lee. Hope mine turns out as nice as this👌👌

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Cheers mate 👍

[@bigsquatchsasfoot1964]

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Yes I am!

[@621aok4]

May see it out and about when finished then

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Hopefully :-)

[@jakkimacneill1957]

Should have sprayed a mexico badge on the doors....otherwise...this build is nothing short of stunning.

[@Cossie.Mk1]

I like the style of the body stripe , but It's not a Mexico

[@philtucker1224]

Two fuel fillers Lee?

[@Cossie.Mk1]

Yes, two fillers - one central tank. Purely for symmetry . Despite a shed load of work ,it just looks cooler 😎

[@philtucker1224]

@@Cossie.Mk1 I know exactly what you mean 👍

[@bigjimharris5446]

[@paulpaul5606]
