wait until you see it put back together... The exterior color carries through the interior and when done right it looks amazing.. The doors pop as do the sills etc. What a great color!

Is there a list of things you are doing (upgrades or otherwise) since you are "rebuilding"

I've done a lot of upgrades already, search my posts or reply's. For now stripping, colour change and rebuild.
Did do the body colored handles in Rally Black..

For those who are interested in the Heritage of Keswick Green ..
In the area of the village Keswick the local Slate is very greenish, I visited Keswick in May this year and took a picture of a building.
So not just a name for a colour, real Similarity.

Rebuild day 5
Today respray of the Inner wheel wells and headlight surround at the driver side.
There are some painted areas visible through the wheel arch inner moulding.
So when in Offroad / extended offroad setting these can be seen, I didn't like that.

Rear


Front



Driver side fender replaced , aligned exactly as before. Did use the Starrett automatic punch during disassembling, came in handy now.
