Cheers for comments. Hopefully i'll get chance to have a proper look at it this weekend, as weather is so bad and dark at like 4pm.

Harry - no pictures of the woman unfortunately. :oops:

Toni - I know what you mean about the colour but its so fantastic in sun light that i'll forgive it. :lol:

Luke - Hello mate! :thumleft:

Defintately. When i get chance i'll throw some g-compound on it, cut away a few years of crap, then polish and throw some amazing glaze onto finish.

I forgot how well made these cars were. Definately a true league of their own.

The funny thing is I actually have some Toyota nail varnish, which is colour matched to the car's paint, PMSL. Have never used it, more of a collector's item. :mrgreen:

Cosmos blue comes into it's own on a summers day, I know from my car. :wink: It'll look stunning all shiny then!
