    # 8419 - Leaves the garage and now I think that I may have lost it..........

    I am about ready to strip everything down and start my paint prep, so as it was a fine winter's morning here in Auckland I thought I would drive it out of the garage to get some photos before it looses that pink hue and turns Guardsman Blue with Wimbledon White Stripes........with a danger of meatballs. But then these girls just jumped in and now I think I may need to build another one!

    After getting several estimates for paint from local car painters at around $25,000 I have decided to do it myself............How hard can it be? I have read the various threads and responses from the Jeffs.........I have several boxes of beer to deal with the dust, and a case of Sailor Jerry's spiced Rum as per da Bat.........
