It was a mask up and spray job, not entirely sure why he decided my bumpers should be red. I'd prefer them black, and I may yet take them off and paint them black. I didn't pay to have the bumpers restored, and they were in a fairly sorry state, so I'm ok with him having restored and painted them as it makes the job of painting them black much easier, if I ever get around to it.
The interior still needs a bit of work though. I need new front seats, or to get the current ones restored, and a new dash clock would be good.
My latest common sense failure (sorry Jordi!)

Anton is that your old SJ that came along green laning in Surrey? Looks brilliant! I have a set of wider alloys if you're interested...

No, that one is gone, unfortunately. This one's always been in fairly good condition, so I decided to pull off the 31's, un-SPOA it and do a snorkel delete. I have to sort out the seats though, they're in pretty bad shape.
I'm trying to get the wee beastie to show car standards. So far she's had a thorough rust treating (lots of new metal in the rear arches), then full undersealing, and a new paint job.
She's pretty close now.

Ha! Yes, it does look a bit like that, doesn't it?
