LOL

FON

Kim Collins as in QST the MTM dealers

You're thinking of Sue Collins, owner of Collins Performance and Powerchips.

They used to race in the Vecta back in the day when I was first into Cossies.

Kim is a very helpful chap, but they're not cheap.

I've got a place inside at UD in it and I'm going to put it on the road properly middle of February and possibly think about selling it end of march or summer depending on work

Paintshop update....

Car has been fully paint depth checked. One main panel had had a couple blow overs but no filler so either keyed or bad stone chips been covered up a couple times. Almost every other panel has had a blow over at one point or another but all is now in check. All panels have now been taken to the same average depth and the bad panel was taken back down to bare metal and built back up to the same depth as the rest and a pre primer primer has been dusted over.

Grabbed a couple pictures today

Its getting a final prep tomorrow then black primered over the weekend and left to slow bake over sunday then new colour should hopefully be going on next week

Painfully slow progress. This better be good paint given how it's taken!

What's doing on the seats?

I wasn't fussed about the time scale tbh. I knew he had a couple major jobs in and mines has been fitted in round about them. I'll be chasing the seats up next week.
