Well, a bit overdue, but at last got the call to say my freshly painted Chim is ready to be collected tomorrow. It has taken a while due to a couple of unforseen problems, but I am so excited I feel like a little kid.
As well as the paint job I have had the front light pods faired in, & I have some new seats here waited to be slotted in a soon as I get her back.

This is her before, & I will update this thread with the after pictures ASAP.

Hey that's Sandbanks in the picture isn't it. Been on holiday most years there since I was a kid, lovely place. Took the TVR there one year until we had the kids ! Lovely place to own a TVR, lucky you.

Nice! What colour is it now? It looks different to the original phot? Or is that just a different camera etc...

Thank you.
The original colour was Starfire mica, but in the end I went with Starmist blue with a load of extra metalflake thrown into the mix so it shines more when the sun hits it.
