Wow. What a weekend, I seem to have barely stopped! Disregarding the glorious weather and not going for a ride, Chris and I have been really busy this weekend up in MK and the Trooper has been thoroughly seen to. I stripped the decals during the week, it was then washed, de-greased, sanded and finally given two coats of Brewers finest yellow gloss, loosely colour mathched to De-Walt yellow. Its been a long slog, but it looks unbelievably good and better than either of us expected. We've done a timelapse progress photo-montage which I'll get up as an animated .GIF at some point with some pictures of the finished article! Ed the crock was instramental with the brush, as was Steffi who came and did all the fiddly things our fat bloke fingers couldn't get to. Proper chic, I tell thee.

Tonka Toy-tastic, my default colour scheme for any car I'd like to own is red with black wheels/trim however our Trooper looks outstanding, literally, in yellow. Even from this here teaser photo you can't begin to imagine what an eye polluting glare it made when we'd finnished it. I felt rough this morning after getting stuck on the M'cotton pickin'25 for 2 hours last night, compounded by blue boogers as a result of getting blue paint dust everywhere, if we can get the mechanicals as sorted as the paint job we're Africa a go go.
