don if it had been a bit better i would have left it a survivor finish mate.
it was rough though when you got into it.
i got a black challenger and a black dirtbike so just fancied something a bit brighter.

it was them little cans of enamel paint jaymz from B&Q.
leaves a nice finish without messing with laquer.
can remember the colour name though.the ford colour is about the same though  :daumenhoch:
