We are desperate to start seeing Austin look more like a cream knight than a green god and couldn't resist trying out some amatuer spraying on his interior.  As previously mentioned patience is not on our list of attributes.  Austin's bare metal floor (with daylight in  areas) has been replaced with a flock carpet and his dash...well... is looking rather dashing despite only one coat and covered in masking tape to protect the various dials and knobs.  We have yet to decide on a colour for his shell but something like dove grey or pearl beige will suit him just fine.  His engine is also seeing some improvement and Mike (not the mechanic) is avidly learning about radiator systems, dynamos and such like.  Anything we can do to keep costs low is a must with this restoration project.
