Painted and lacquered (December 2005)

At last ! Julie’s car is once again resplendent in shiny Diamond Silver Metallic paint. Five litres of finest quality lacquer add to the lustrous finish.

Julie rented a garage in Harlow for the finished car to live in. In the meantime, it was a handy storage facility for the parts still awaiting restoration.
