Thanks lads, its actually getting closer now.

I could moan about being busy at work thats slowing me down but with so many people being either quiet or layed off we carnt realy moan.

I didnt want it to look like john hastons but i suppose painting it that colour isnt helping it, hopfully when i get the grey on it will look more like my avtar.

It's all one colour mate. Looks good.

John H's car is a ford blue I think. So yours might be faster being a Porka blue. *tongue*

A tiny update,

Finaly got the inside bits painted where id welded the shell on.

Got someone local to make me a loom for it so thats happening now and sould be ready in a few weeks.

now for the bad news, a few weeks ago i was bent down painting some bumpers, i went to stand up and my knee locked solid, i managed to release it but oh god i nearly cryed, the pain was un beleveable.
anyhow i went to a&e and they said id caught some cartalidge, see how i go ? last week it did it again then two days later again, fook me its unbeleveabe pain, so off i went again, they did some x rays and sent me to a specialist the day after.
Ive now got to go for a scan but ive to wait for that through the post.

The good news was ive got next week off work and was going to get battled on with the mini, looks like il be having a week at home now, i havent been there most of the week as i can hardly walk. bummer.
