Just thought I post up some pictures of the car as to how it looks so far. im doing my best to get it presentable for the Military Muster in 2.5 wks time.
Today I got the chrome all painted out. I used some sanding pads in the angle grinder and then 3 cans of self etching primer. Once that stuff dried I could hardly make a mark in it. Hopefully that will keep the paint from flaking off of the chrome.

Well I spent all day today painting the car. The base green is Khaki Green #3. At first I wasn't happy with the shade as I didn't feel it was green enough, however I compared it to one of the NOS marker lights going on the car and it matched perfectly. The black was Tremclad Flat black mixed with a fair amount of the KG#3 to tone down the black to the colour of fresh asphalt.
I still have to paint on the hood #'s and paint the bumpers white. Did CMHQ London cars carry any other marking? I thought I had seen some where CMHQ markings on a vehicle before.

Hi Mike
Yes I used a spray gun to paint the car. The paint was industrial enamel thinned with paint thinner so that it would flow better.
