    o.k. heres a couple more pics of the county.
    progress been a bit slow lately, but it's moving in the right direction.
    all the orange flecks on the black are just from the plastic sheeting and will dust off.
    the front end is pretty much complete now and all the orange done except for the vents which i will hopefully cut-out next week sometime.



    the tub i've painted with black rust inhibitor but will all be black chequer plate when finished. all the rear glass is in place - just the windscreen to go




    i get the gearbox back on tuesday ( they been saying that for the last 2 weeks but this time they promised )
    so i'll get that in and get it out side for a good wash down and a polish, before starting on the interior.
    i'm leaving the back seat out and am making a cage for the dog on a false floor which will have deep drawers under and a fridge slide on the other side together with a fair bit of usable storage space. i'm hoping to be able to mount some kind of air con up in the rear roof but don't have a clue as to what's available or how to do it as of yet so if anyone has any ideas let's have em.
    the back looks a different colour in the pics but it's just the light and/or camera the actual colour is more like the top pic.

    will take pictures of how the ute part is done when i get on to the interior.

    You want stickers like this Jase

    Or send me some side on picks when shes done and I will add the stickers on Photoshop before you commit them to your new paint to see how it looks first.

    needed advice as this was only the second time i done it and first time i stuffed up, so wanted to cover all my bases.

    that colour looks pretty much exactly the same as tangiers - and a cracking job to boot. bet that paint was a bit cheaper tho .
    That colour is called Moly Orange and from the photo's looks damn close and that was done in Acrylic, 3 coats of colour and about 7 coats of clear (covers up all the mistakes) and ive been a bit lazy, I still havnt cut it and polished it yet and that was about 3 months ago.

    Ive got the schematics for some Jacobsen stickers at work which would look great along the sides of the county with a nice Jacobsen in 2" white lettering across the bonnet and your stickering is done

    i wouldn't mind the dragon on the back , though not sure it'd come up good on chequer plate.
    as for the rest of the stickers from all, i think i've got it covered. just waiting on my delivery.
    i'll take some side pics hopefully thurs/fri when i've got the box back in and i'll roll it out and do them then as it's a bit heavy pushing it back up the drive and into the garage.
