    Red face Progress! 1944 MB

    Good evening everyone (well evening where i am)!

    Just attached a couple of photos showing progress in a new thread as promised (a while ago) to keep you all upto date with progress!

    I have wire brushed the chassis, axles, springs, and given it all a good two coats of red oxide, then then two coats of olive drab green!

    the chassis is very stright and i have not done any welding on it at all, apart from the new rear crossmember!

    i am very happy!

    I have used a very high quality red oxide primer, i belive it was the same red oxide as used on ships! the top coat came from a paint supplier on ebay ihere in the UK.

    I am very happy with both products!
