Maybe a few other members on the board can take a lesson from this 'Blitz' build and get moving (you know who you are)... tongue


I've been trying to do a little bit of work every day to get it done smile But I agree. It's a lot of fun driving them, I can't wait to finish it and be able to drive it whenever I want! smile

Yep I will be painting it myself. The engine bay I only touched up some spots. 90% of what you see under there is the original paint.

If you are going to paint it yourself give us some tips, from what I have read the roof is the biggest bitch to paint and I want to do mine too.


Thanks Bryan. Long flat surfaces I do find a little trickier than just say, a fender. I've never painted a roof on a DSM, the old red one I left the roof original since the paint was good on it. This time around I'm doing my roof, fenders, and hatch as well as a friend's roof that same day (also a 1G). I have new tools to use this time around so it should come out nice I hope. The hardest part is the prep for the paint.
