Faux: the antonym of genuine

[Captain Chaos]

I admire your patience Alan,I am sure the end result will be most excellent

The underside has now been seam-sealed where appropriate and a nice coat of bed-liner should protect it from the future ravages of use on the UK roads. I've also had the interior of the shell painted in the same stuff. I was only going to do the boot interior initially to seal the internal edges of the replacement quarters but it seemed worthwhile to do a proper job as it should assist with sound deadening too. If all goes well Faux should have a gloss top-coat shortly. After that, I get the opportunity to find out just how much of the car has gone walkabout over the years and how many of the parts I have so far secured will actually be usable. (Expect requests for assistance in this respect soon).

Looking great, I remember mine at this stage, but I hand painted all of mine inside and underneath.

Getting there Alan,after drooling over your 442 at Brooklands I can see a difficult choice ahead....Like how big a Garage can I build?

[Derek]

Looking forward to the top coat now.

Well, the 2k's been flatted and the gloss applied as shown below. I know my original intention was for Faux to be plum crazy but it just looked so good in black! Should be doing more damage to my wallet soon.

That's looking real good

[ScottyDave]

Gotta agree, looks good in black.

Well, I really did like the 15" Torq-Thrusts shown earlier in the thread and I did consider the regulation steels but I was also toying with putting 17" Rallye wheels on which would have looked good against the black. However, I've decided on something else entirely.
