Just out of interest Jim, how much?, are you keeping it the same colour?, I potentially want to respray sometime this century

[Iain]

Keep it star silver Jim   best Omega colour!!
If i ever get round to it im gonae do my astro silver Monza in star silver

I just said to my missus about 3 days ago that i hadn't seen you about recently...that'll explain it then...thought the car was away for the Winter

I would say around a grand for decent job...i see you are preparing it yourself? that should cut costs a bit......

[Markie]

think Jim is keeping it silver

Certainly looks like you've been busy, are you doing the respray yourself or is it being trailored somewhere.
