Looks a treat

What do you use to paint it with (equipment) and is it 2pk or cellulose?
How do you find the bugs and paint - as I see you are doing what I will have to do and spray oh' naturelle?

Paint is enamel, just gave it all a light rubbing down and equipment is just a cheap Sealey spray gun

Spent yesterday fitting the front panel, rad and intercooler then i decided to roughly off the n/s wing up and noticed the bottom intercooler hose was fouling the inner wing so i ended up re-positioning the intercooler and hosing which in the end worked out better than before, no pic's yet will post some later

Not done much since fitting the door seals on Monday but I have made a Disco 2 dog guard fit the 2a which I still need to fit a piece of plywood to for hanging my metal detector and stuff to for when the 2a is back on the road and I can start doing more beach metal detecting, I have also stripped + cleaned and painted the pedal boxes and accelerator linkages ready for fitting once I've ordered more stuff when I next get paid
