Looks like it's coming along nicely! Are you going to paint her a different colour this time round or stick with the same two colours again?
I'm loving all the purple!

definitely coming along nicely!

How long do you think you have left to completion?

 

[aberdarepuma]

I'm hoping around 10 weeks a few things left to buy, I've got a seat at an upholsterers and the obvious spray job,, but it's coming along well, money's holding me back now, due to just buying a house and moving in within the next 2 weeks
