14.3.2017 From Canary To Dove

Who would have thought it would be so difficult choosing a colour for Austin.  Dove Grey, Pearl White, Old English Cream or something more outrageous perhaps. One thing we both agree on is that the racing green needed to go...and fast.  This colour may say 'hey I'm original', but it doesn't say 'hey I'd look great at your wedding'.  Another thing we also agreed on is that we are going to hand spray Austin's entire body.  This is not only a cost saving strategy but it is also because we want to pride ourselves on the finished product being all our own work.  Austin isn't pristine: NO 50 year old is! So his finish will be like him...full of character.  After much deliberation, visualisation, googling and head scratching, we decided on dove grey and purchased enough spray cans to complete the job, only to spray his interior (as shown) and decided this isn't the colour we want.  His interior will be hidden eventually so we will keep him grey.  You've got to agree he looks better than he did.  Watch this space to discover what colour we finally agree on.
