Airbrushing Course




















































I went on an airbrushing course so that I could add some paint detail to the Coupe. It was run by Willy Johnstone (been on American Hot Rod TV programme with Boyd Coddington) and Anthony Brodie (who has worked for Harley Davidson in the USA). It was a two day course taking you through the basics and then through the steps to create your own piece. The Poster Art girl was my effort. Sorry the pic is posted sideways as I am not sure how to rotate images in the Blog yet.

First Drive



At long last the hard work has paid off and I get to drive the car. This was quite an amazing feeling as it all of the sudden dawns on you that this is not a restored car, it is built completely from scratch. It has never ever been driven before. This car started from nothing more than a selection of parts all assembled to come up with this end result. Man that makes you feel proud! Yeah okay, a bit nervous too, that everything is going to work okay!
