It's at Llyn Brenig, North Wales. Part of the infamous 'Evo Triangle', (Google it).
Lovely roads and nice cafe and walks there.
Sadly, now all 50mph speed cameras for 20 odd miles, but still worth the drive.

Looking great there Adrian. Nice finish on the paint.
What are you using for spraying?

Re: Roadster Rebuild Diary from Cornwall

Now don't laugh to loud, Rustoleum Combicolor RAL 3000 rattle cans.

4 in total to get 3 coats on each panel.

£40 + £10 for pre-wipe and 2000 grit paper.

Oh, and A bottle of Captain Tooleys Crack Cure (already had that).

Waiting for it to harden then hit it with 2000 grit again and polish.

Re: Roadster Rebuild Diary from Cornwall

Wow, you got a great finish for rattle cans. I’m using a 3hp 90litre air compressor and spraying in an old market stall tent outside the garage but with a cheap spray gun. I would like to upgrade it to a Devilbis gun but need to save the pocket money.
Roll on summer so I can finish the bodywork.

Yours is looking good to.

The day will come when you won't be able to wipe the smile off your face .

Carry on the good work.

Re: Roadster Rebuild Diary from Cornwall

Thanks and no it is no small task, not for the faint hearted.
Just trying to do a bit at a time before I get it in the ear about decorating the kitchen, it is coming and i’m running out of excuses.
