First pic is of my repainted rocker cover. Sapphire blue metallic. Not exactly the colour I wanted but its turned out as well as I'd hoped.

Next two are just plastics that had gone a bit dull and grey so I masked them and flashed them over with plastikote and a matt lacquer. Getting a real test in this weather.

Not the way I would have normally done it to be honest. It was my Dad that suggested it. Came out OK.

First jobs were two new front tyres and an engine bay clean. Maybe I haven't looked hard enough to find the dreaded rot. Seems a tidy motor though. Hands down the best cash to fun ratio of any car I've owned. GTi6 a close second.
