Cheers matey, yes my bumper collection is a little overdue! Let me know if you're about on weekend of 5th Sept. Might stretch her legs on the M25, better speak with the bank manager too

My buses new home. Tight squeeze! Next job is to knock out that central pillar and install a proper double door so she can sit in the middle and get in and out easy.

In with the old and in with the new. Paint blending! Something to pass the time while I wait for my V55/5.
It's horrible to use and it needs a lot of elbow grease but there's rarely a substitute for old skool T Cut for colour restoration. IMHO of course. Plus doing it with your hands rather than a machine means you get to check every nook and cranny of the bodywork.
I was brought up on T Cut as my dad was a used car dealer way back when. I thought I'd seen the last of it but I swear by it.
Photos not great as raining today so I was in the confines of the garage but she's coming along. A good polish will follow the T Cut.
