Dave,
Its acrylic paint, looks better in the photos than in real life but overall its not too bad - just need to match the colour.
As I said, a little bit of elbow grease and some time and effort and it should come up a treat.
Will bring it along to Boris' picnic day so you can pick it to pieces. ha...ha...

Looks good Bill.
You going to but all the trim back on? or leave it cal look?
I love ovals as well , since you where here looking at my 76 I have got another 3 ovals.
They grow on you hey.

Nathan,
I'm still tossing up what to do.
I'll probably drive it as is for a while and then decide.
If I put the trim back on then I'll have to replace the one piece windows as well.
I think thats where I'll end up but need to get my head around it.
In the interim, I'll drive it and enjoy.
Three ovals huh - - boy you're a glutten for punishment.
