This is what's keeping me busy at the moment and up till half one his morning- my V8!!

After months of work I'm finally at the stage of trying to decide what colour to paint it before the full refit. Initially I was thinking of Bonatti Grey and doing that whole Lara Croft thing but I spotted a 50th Aniversary Defender in Atlantis Blue and that had to be the way to go!

However I keep on seeing a late Defender in dark metallic red and I really like that as well.

Any suggestions chaps? Pictures would be appreciated!!

Thanks

Black! With Flames! :twisted: :twisted:

Or deep metallic burgundy on the bottom half, with cream upper half. (That's my dream paintjob for the VW bus I'd like...)

Other options I'd consider are: Hammerite (any colour) or just making sure it's entirely covered with mud 100% of the time.

Edit: Sorry, I don't have any pictures.
Edit 2: And I've no idea how you'd go about dying the tilt cream, either.

:oops: :oops:
