Here’s a selection of pictures from work I’ve been busy with over the summer and autumn.

Sometimes I'll paint other stuff. These motorbike bits were prepped, primed (first pic) and finished in Matt black. Simon was so pleased with the result. Above and beyond what he expected.

Black paint refresh for the wedding bus Black Betty. Needed a few bits of welding which meant painting all the black.

Just finished accident damage repair and colour change to Warrens Porsche 356 coupe replica. Had some interesting challenges along the way including painting around a roll cage that could not be removed and adjusting door gaps.

Back on the road again after body repairs and full respray.

Something a bit different has been through the workshop. This Austin Healey Frogeye Sprite was brought to me with new panels fitted but badly aligned and brush painted in red primer, but moisture had got through the primer and rusted the body panels. Door gaps and panel fit were corrected and a massive effort was made to fit a fibreglass flip front with out it looking like an eyesore.
The body was shot blasted and epoxy primed to protect it. The finish colour is Old English White as used on many British cars back then.
It's back with its proud owner now to be put back together and should be on the road later this year. Can't wait to see it out and about.

Here's some photos of my latest bit of paintwork. originally it was going to be done while still fitted to the chassis but this has made a much nicer job of it, and even the underneath looks good. If anyone wonders the colour is Porsche Guards Red.

Another body repair finished a few weeks ago. This bay had the rotten front steps replaced and the doors repaired. I always prefer to cut out the rust and weld in new metal.

Been busy in the last few weeks catching up with body repairs. The splitty is the latest one to be finished.
