Shiney and still drying

Stopped by to see my Tasmin today. It isn't pink anymore. 4 coats of clear. Some light orange peel but not nearly as much as my wifes legacy.

Re: Shiney and still drying

The new heart will fit pretty much like this, only fuel injected not a carb.

Mike, it might be at Reading, at least if my daughter goes. If not I'm guessing I'll ride up. Of course, if it does come I'll have to put up some anti SVXcess wire to keep him from trying to buff out the fresh paint.

Re: Shiney and still drying

Nice chilly ride in my TVR today. Who needs a top, bumpers, lights, light buckets or even a license plate when your driving on 4 bent rims with a nice tire bulge in one of your sidewalls. Pics to come soon. Needs to go back for a final cut and buff in 2-3 weeks but time to start putting some bits and pieces together.

Maybe Subeman90 will give his honest opinion of the job. I'm happy with it and that's usually all that matters but of course I'm a little biased.
