First Coat.
A lick of paint has restored enthusiasm and momentum to the Jeep project. Matt and his team of experts worked a long Saturday to finish preparing the chassis and all the mechanical components for a coat of ‘sand yellow’. The underside of the body had a coat for good measure and is positioned, but not bolted to the chassis. I find it most inspiring that a BIG bit is now almost finished. looking at the Jeep in stripped down form there is really so little to it that a few good weekends would see it finished. There will, inevitably, be awkward snagging items, but I think we are on track for hitting tarmac in late Spring, early Summer.

This is marvellous, well done everybody. Now, Tobe The Lensman, if you wanted to do a desert location shoot with it posed against suitable scenery, and you couldn't take it out of England, where would you go?
Deep into the bowels of Photoshop. Got a whole library of dez scenes. Nifty clipping path, cut and paste. Job done. Ten minutes, or two hours at an inflated rate if you are a client!
Military Jeep....French....err, weren't they painted all black (to make the white flag stand out more clearly)?

Fred Fibonacci has been visiting with Ron Combo. Details of this fact-finding mission will escape, like gas, as and when I remember them.
Well done Toby, Matt and Matt's team of experts. The Jeep looks terrific.
