Hullo!
First some brief backstory, I'm 18 always wanted an Austin seven since I've been big enough to fit in its glovebox, my first car was an Austin A30 then a ford pop 103e and now a my very own big seven that was in a rather sorry state.
And I'm currently in the process of painting the old girl with a brush, yes I know not great but I'm 18 and don't have thousands to spare, which a chap that approached me and started telling me "you're devaluing that, you ought to get it done properly" didn't seem to understand haha.
Snobs I tell you! Snobs and knobs to em! But yes I shall be using this post to post updates on the paint job in stages.
I've spent £15 on primer £20 on black cellulose for the wings and £45 on tractor cellulose for the dark green on the body then just under 20 on materials (sand paper, filler and a few brushes)
So here's the red oxide while still wet and then some before!
