Dont want to cause disappointment but unfortunately not haha. That kind of thing I am to do next year. I have mapped out like a perfect little fairy tale story haha.
I will always want paint before anything like that unless an turns up that I cannot refuse.

Who knows what will happen. I want to dont get me wrong, I just need paint! I have an issue with saving money for things like that as I spend it on the car on a I need it now basis!

Cheers bud - been to a couple of those now so not sure if ive seen you before haha. I'm hoping the guys organise another tunnel run for late this year as I want to have this on the road for a month or two and I love those events.

Yeah well I was talked out of getting any one else to do the prept/paint so Im diving in to do it myself now.   :grin:

Started to order up bits I need. Namley dremel bits so I can get into some really awkward places down the back of the turrets to grind back welds. Got some etch primer also. Next is to get some filler and decide whats the best route for getting paint. The bay will be primed and painted at a garage I have use of with a compressor, but  I know nothing about paint, so don't know where to get paint from for the gun?

Any way, got the engine up on the engine stand today. Yeah. This got in a STATE quickly...   :grin:
