Paint Shop Pro's - MINI 3 Getting a Makeover

Second in the queue for the paint shop is my 1970 Mini 1000.  Oh how I hate that colour.

The plan is for a 90% respray of all visible paint except for the engine bay.  That's a job for another day.

These pics are of the car at the paint shop before it's stripped.  Hopefully will get a couple in progress. 
If all goes to plan the car should emerge from the workshop in Tartan Red with an English white Roof. 

The prep work started.  Unfortunately the passenger side front wing was not repairable. The wing will be replaced.

Bonnet complete.   Like the colour. :)


Boot lid cmplete.


Does my bum look big in this colour?  Looking good.
Hoping to have it completed this week.

Now for the sides. 


In the end the front wings needed to be replaced.


And finally it's complete.  White roof an'all. Wow.


Maybe the grey would have looked good.  Not!
