The repaint is all good if you have the time cliff...after 4 weeks got the bulkhead, wings, windscreen back on but still have to paint the doors the rear of the defender and the tub ...hard yakka on ya jack jones but am proud of my efforts.
I reckon you are dead on with your choice of colour Land Rovers seem to benefit that matt earthy treatment the gay blue just did not do it for me, In actual fact i am suprised how good the Aus drab olive looks in this environment, I am glad of the choice.
So Cliffy are you painting it youreslf or farming it out to ya mate ...its a bloody big motor lol
As for the checker plate as my wing tops are stuffed (bonnet too) I am getting them knocked up from the chequer plate left over from the tub top, was looking at keeping them as ali (because the rear is silver) but feel that i may get the dazzle see how i go

On top of the Herne spur and at home in the front yard.A

So far we have fitted an EGR kit, vortex muffler, engine saver, full size TRT intercooler, ECU remap (by Toombie, Mike Hayes), dual battery system using Optima blue & yellow tops plus a traxide unit plus his upgrade headlight wiring loom, silicon hoses, high tuff heavy duty axles & CVs, ARB front & rear diff locks, ARB compressor (under bonnet), 6 x Wolf rims with Wrangler muddies, checker plate fender protectors, Warn XD9000 winch (which we fully serviced and put new wire rope on), exhaust manifold - cutaway part of webbing and sent away to have heat treated by PRO COAT ( hopefully no warped manifold) Outback interior roof console which houses our Icom Pro400 UHF plus we have 2 handheld Icom 5 watters, VMS gps, britpart centre console, bilstein shocks all round and heavy duty king springs in front and firestone airbags in place of coils in rear, bilstein steering dampener, long ranger fuel tank. Airbags are run by separate (2nd)ARB compressor which feeds 15 litre air tank which has an in-cab dual controller, from the tank we also have air in and out fed to each side of tray, ARB full length roof rack which we cut down to fit dual cab with slight overhang at front to allow for 4 HID driving lights (on order) Hi-Lift jack. Things still to do: fit driving lights, fit second shock on rear, purchased but not yet received Black Widow front seat covers and organisers to also be fitted. Oh, and we forgot to mention that we have a Piggyback slide-on camper which is just the best (we're not biased!). That's about it and we're off to the Cape in June our very first trip. PS having trouble posting pics will try again...Gaz.

Going to the Cape in June myself. Hopefully our paths will cross 'cos I've gotta get a look at your truck.
