So satisfying to see how a wash brings out the details.

Hello all, I'm progressing with the engine nicely.
The plug leads were especially challenging.

Ok, the engine has been finished. I don't think there's anything else to add to it. The decals weren't too bad for 34 years old.

I'd nearly display that beside the car, it's a shame to hide it.

Weather is picking up a bit. A silver undercoat befor the final colour.

Colour coat down. Now to clear or not to clear, still undecided.

Thanks all!
Shay, you're probably right, I should clear it. I hate clearing, It's my weakest point. Something always goes awry when I do it.
