Inspiring work!

Hi and many thanks for your comments,
excellent references too, Im sure that will help clear this one up. As for your quibbles yes your right although the grey is slightly shiny - I guess my pictures arent the best at showing that.
As for the brakes, as I have mentioned I have found such a variation in the colour of so many components of the car that I gave up depicting the actual car from 1970, I will keep it as close as I can though and thanks for your feedback - it is much appreciated, keep it coming as I go along.
