Re: SMS Paint Job

That's a thing of beauty Mark - top notch.

Off topic on the first reply but where did you get the tyres from and did you have them on during SVA? They look rather 60's era.

Re: SMS Paint Job

Hi Kev,

They are Avons from Longstone Tyres on 15inch proper knock-offs. Not cheap at £838, but I am told they are the best performing 15inch tyre you can get.

Hopefully not, I've got some trick 3M film cut to size for the front valance. Last one I did however, the rivet gun jumped when riveting the bonnet rivets! A few 'Oh crickeys' where issued or words to that effect.!

Re: SMS Paint Job

Hey Mark,

Fantastic paint job!:thumb: It looks very similiar to the Kirkham Demonstrator paint job which after much deliberation am looking to similiar to the Kirhham with SMS. Can I ask what your colour combination is?

Regards,

Martyn

Re: SMS Paint Job

Paint is Ferrari Blue Tour de France Sikkens paint code FER22 with Wimbledon White stripes. I am a repeat customer of SMS, so it wouldn't be right to state the cost, surfice to say it was well north of £3K!

The Avon tyres are 215/60VR15 on the front and 245s on the back

I'll post some more pics when I get it back together/
