Actually bren its all changed since then so its a complete new colour scheme and set up to what we'd talked about - its also getting some subtle body mods to clean up the lines a little too

Not sure Oz - more likely the 2nd especially as I'm not sure how my shifts will pan out as I'm supposed to be moving from my current shift sometime soon which will change the shows I can make it to.

Hi Guys, I've just noticed this thread, There's a lot of work in this one, with some things I've not seen before on another vehicle, a lot of prepping

as usual! artwork,yes, on the sides and hood, about 60/70 hours work yet as I think the last painter used a roller,

Mo.

Update for yers all - went down and visited the vette at Mo's yesterday and took a few snappies o me own - its coming along nicely and looks a lot different now that Mo has removed the huge rub strip that runs around the car.

Much cleaner lines Phil.

Deffinately H - the lines around the shut point on the hood and the rear quarter around the arch seem to be particularly neater - I think that chevrolet should have revised the seems and removed them ASAP and not simply have left them there for all what 13 years or so of C4 production.

Dazzy! me too matey
