http://i1237.photobucket.com/albums/...ps916779cd.jpg Should look nice over the blue but maybe as mikmiglia says toned down to "old English white" :thumb: |

Micky its all in the detail :sing: |
Your right 32,000 times.
Speaking of detail where do the "egg box" grills come from???:nod: |
where do the "egg box" grills come from?
boot scraper suppliers? |
last time I was in miglias factory he had a couple sat there and ribble must supply them as well. so I guess the answer must you can get them from miglia or ribble!
hope that helps or were you trying to get these guys who do this for a living to give up their sources? :icon_biggrin: |

I was told the original grills were supplied with the Sammio kits but not with the Ribble kits hence the question? Are the grills avaliable, if so how much??:razz: That said I am looking at the new chrome "shopping trolly" grill |

Painter's work has been slow so he's getting on with the rest of my G-46.
Doors now painted http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...ps3b01d84f.jpg And the bonnet is now in primer. http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...psa4d2ac47.jpg The paint brings out the curves well me thinks :smile: |

Sure does! |
The bonnet is now painted and will be ready to re-fit over the next week.
http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...ps798ee79c.jpg http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...psd46fb7ab.jpg The head light recess looks painted but it's the original "sammio" gel coat. I am not sure weather to paint them black white or silver :noidea: Now need some "off-white" roundels and a stripe to finish it off :biggrin1: |
I do like that colour, very nice!
|
Finally started putting the G-46 back together at last :icon_smile:
It is now sat on my ramps under a sheet and when ever people ask what under it I have great plesure in pulling off the sheet and watching the look on their faces change. The photo does't do it justice, you have to be stood in front of this to get the "feel of it". It's just awsome :first: Does anyone know here can I get decal made up? I have asked Andy but no reply. http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...ps25f8b1b2.jpg |
If Andy doesn't reply drop me a pm or give me a call and ill sort you out

Hi Mike, We spoke just the other day! I'm just waiting for you to send the cream vinyl and it will be sorted. I can do the racing numbers and if you send dimensions, I can cut the stripe too as long as you send enough material.
|
That great :high5:
Sorry for the confussion but it sort of got lost in a very interesting conversation (still waiting to be contacted). There a roll 5m x 1m on ebay will that be enought? I'll pm you with more details. |
Got the front grill fitted, it was one from Andy @ RIBBLE.
It looks solid but it does have small holes and it's just right for one of Andy's new RIBBLE logo's http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...psfca7f15b.jpg Finally found and fitted the new/recycled rear lights. This turn-out to be quite a job, it's the old story of the "Sammio difference" I could not get a smooth and even line off the rear end so it was just a "Sammio gest-u-ment" :noidea: R/H side http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...ps5f67811a.jpg L/H side http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...ps86972356.jpg After much chopping of the new expensive paint work I end up with this http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...psa2848215.jpg A closer look shows the old light holes covered with a bit of stainless steel mess into which I put the LED reversing lights http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...ps72d992f8.jpg From the profile can you tell. A, where GJ might have got some inspiration and B, what car the light units came from? Just need the chrome bumper and decals now :gossip: http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...psd96b9358.jpg My next problem is how to fix the boot lid :noidea: |
Nice lights

http://i1329.photobucket.com/albums/...psa2848215.jpg[QUOTE] Micky I do like the rear lights the extra grills. It will certainly keep people guessing. I am going for something similar with the slimmer sunbeam tiger units. HM |
Micky - Your G-46 is coming together very nicely. :cool:
I'll be interested to see how you sort the boot lid out. Good luck, Paul. :) |
the lights are jaguar 420/ s type .....came in a long great
