The last week has been spent continuing to prepare the boot interior for painting and also preparing, priming and painting the new timber around the the base of the rear window. The interior upper corner panels around the rear seat, the timber around the rear window and the lower panels in the boot where they are above the seat platform were undercoated then given two coats of Tahiti blue. The undercoat I created from dark grey undercoat mixed with some generic mid-blue coach enamel, however it came out a bit dark so I think I’ll mix in some white undercoat next time. I also started work on the left-hand boot door, removing the skin, filling holes with dowel and replacing wood where necessary. This is now ready for primer. The right-hand door needs a little more attention to holes but is otherwise ready for skinning once the metalwork has been reattached.
