Barber – I was woken up at 5.30am this morning by the sound of rain lashing down outside.
So I know that August is disappearing quickly and my painting ‘window’ will only extend a few more weeks.
Therefore I plan to get the car back on the road in September whether I get an extra coat of paint on, or not.
Then I will just drive it over the Winter and have another go at finishing the paint in late Spring.

Molleur – Thanks, although this has proven to be a real test of my endurance.
Part of me really wants to throw the towel in and just accept a poor paint job as
anything is better than primer.
Especially as I have spent so long convincing myself that the ‘warts and all’ nature of my build just doesn’t matter.
( The amazingly positive reaction the car gets either on the road or parked on my driveway confirms this. )
But the other part of me really wants to achieve a half decent paint finish, not perfect, but better than it is now.
Cheers, Paul.
