Gent's that is looking the business, well impressed. The depth of the colour, especially on the black is great and all the panels are flat and straight when looking at the reflections.........................well done Paramount Refinishing, excellent job Niki.

A copy of an original colour scheme with a twist.........................like it.

Were all the original cars blue? - I got the impression from photos that some were black, but couldn't decide if that was colour reproduction or real.

Even after seeing the pictures of the progress the finished item is just WOW

To say I am happy with the result is an understatement!

The work scope & price were agreed in Advance - and looking at the results - it was worth every penny.

Great Job Niki.

And I've found the site! No hiding place, eh!! (thanks for the heads-up, Neil!)

All the best

Arthur, there was quite a bit of prep work done on the body, the whole process can be seen at http://www.facebook.com/pages/Paramount-Refinishing/138030046289994?sk=photos

Funny you mention the rear clam closure though as that wasnt touched - the main panel fit is as it was when i bought the car I did play with the boot lid though as I have used different hinges & have re-enforced it on the back, to make it flat again!

The main thread on the car is now in the members only section, but you can still find it on alfa BB & piston heads.....

Cheers
