Scout carrier progress

I wanted to spray one of my motorcycles in a desert scheme. The colour on offer for British vehicles was a bit Primrose for my liking.
So I bought Cromadex from 'Jeep Parts UK' It's their German desert colour which they call something like Dunkel Gelb. I think it looks like light stone and I'm very pleased with it. Ron

We have a choice of two large paint suppliers in Perth - Protec and Chameleon paints. I have used both companies and I'm happy with the colour matching and pricing but one is considerably more economical than the other.

There is a substantial portion of the front lower hull still camouflaged and allowing for fading I think I can have the ramaining colour fairly accurately matched.

Going by the two existing photo's of the vehicle in service I will replicate the two tone camouflage used fairly extensively in Western Australia during the war.

Really looking forward to painting the whole machine but that's still quite a long way down the track...

Cheers

Phill.
