    Gary, I really take my hat off to you and bow to your many talents. I had visions of you preparing the car and then sending off to a professional paint sprayers but not a bit of it - you ARE the professional paint sprayer! I would trust myself to spray a model car or a kid's pedal car but there's no way I would even contemplate painting an entire full-sized one! Much respect to you and thanks for providing us classic car nerds with a channel we enjoy watching. I admit that the only videos I don't watch right through are the Lotus ones. I've just never been a Lotus fan (stands by to be blocked from RUclips!) but with all the others - this one included - I'm hooked from beginning to end. All the best to you and thanks again.

      I had the option of renting a spray booth but weighing up the amount of work hiring transport to take the car there and back as well as having to ferry over and use all my own equipment just seemed a lot more a faff. But doing it in a dusty environment definitely makes for a lot more work once the car is painted. Regards.

    Your attention to detail is second to none, and you can tell by the finished article that you put your heart and soul into it.
    I hope you are proud of what you have accomplished with this car.
    Take a bow Gary, it’s very well deserved.
