    My baby is back home

    Well my car came home from paint yesterday. Another stunning job by the boy. Now the 'final' assembly starts. Funny how the enthusiasm floods back once car is painted.
    Must get the car through IVA before you Ian

    That will have to go to adjudication, Mick. Yours was half built?!

    Looks stunning mate. Great finish!

    Yes john, I realise that. But I did strip it right back before starting again. To be honest, I reckon this build will probably take as long, if not longer than the Corse did. Still fun though.

    Really nice job Mick. Love the colour, waterbased or solvent paint?

    Well Neil,
    I'm hoping to get the build 'complete' for IVA in about 6 weeks or so. Either way I want the car on the road in May. Fingers crossed.

    Mick

    looks like "the boy's done good"....... again !!!

    must say over the last few Strato's paint job's that he has done the workmanship is top draw.

    and no Niki the Zagato is not ready for paint yet !!
