    The red escort looking great. Spraying is like plastering - an expert makes it look so easy but it's never the same when I try. :-)

      @@steve5772 A lot of it is in prep. Being good at your job means you prepare for it well. Getting an even coat/finish doesn't take much learning, but getting that prep so clean and tidy takes a fair bit of skill.
      If you've had workshop/engineering/mechanical jobs where you can transfer such a mindset from, you get a headstart on a newbie to doing these things. I'd never painted a car in my life, but my missus had a dent in her rear wheel arch, some filler and a few sunny days later, the body work looks good again. Paint shop wouldn't probably done a better job, but as a first timer, the colour matches well (if anything filler is more of a pain).
      Making sure surface is clean, masking up properly, getting that primer on nicely & then building up a few layers of paint is really all there is too it. Lacquer coats are harder than base/colour coat just from my very brief experience doing bits and pieces.

    Good decision. Personally I'm not a big fan of replicas, so I hope the Escort is retained as a very nice, clean and tidy original car and the RS parts get used for a restoration in progress (that way two cars remain largely original).

    My late kid brother ran the biggest Toyota agency in Africa for seven years. The UN was their most important customer, but I'm sure he would have been able to find you a cash customer for your Hi-lux, with the skills to fabricate their own machine cannon mount and platform. Sadly after stints in Sudan, Iraq, Libya, Kenya and Myanmar, he ran out of road a couple of months ago. Having spent a lifetime in the business, I'm sure he would have loved your chanel.
