Finally managed to get images up on here. This is a before photo shot of the panels. The condition in terms of the metalwork is superb. The original paint is good considering it's years. However the home customising is (well I'll leave that to others to draw their own conclusions). While I was a fan of the Pistols 'back in the day' It would not be something I would consider putting on my beloved. I have always been a boring leave them as they are type for the past 27 years. Anyway after much rubbing with cellulose thinners and G3 products they have come up a treat. I will post the finished article in due course. Think I have spent roughly 7 hours in total geting them down to plain original white.
