Greyhound bare metal respray

I had the pleasure to witness up close how Steve and his team at Brooklands Motor Co stripped down my car and resprayed it to perfection.
   Amazing to see how many details these guys know about the Greyhound: how to take it apart, where water typically gets trapped, how to adjust the doors perfectly, where the alumium is most sensitive etc... so glad I didn't surrender this precious metal to a random shop. Even for the choice of colour - it's almost impossible to choose from a phonebook full of shades of grey - so I simply trusted him to pick exactly the right colour with the righ patina and he totally nailed it. The last thing you want after such a big job is a colour that looks too modern and too far off the original '60's palette. Proper artisanship with a total committment to perfection.
   
   Enjoy the pictures!

Reg, your Greyhound looks STUNNING now!
   Fascinating to see the body on the original bucks, there is no doubting the level of craftsmanship that the 'Brooklands Bashers' bring to a restoration.
