I would be inclined to do a neat and tidy job for your own benefit , but allow the body to scruff up with use.
a less than perfect paint job will help with the look.
This seems wrong to suggest doing a less than perfect job.
the build is looking great
Cheers Colin
Hello Colin,
I have had the same thoughts as yourself, that I just cannot do a less than perfect job, however, the urge to replicate the original is proving to be the stronger emotion. The original paint job does not look to be bad in the pictures, nor is it bad on the surviving bonnet, but, while the cars name painted on it is neat in terms of the forming of the letters, looks like it was painted with thick lumpy porridge!
Regards, Mark.
