Just ready to leave the paint shop for the next stage in the 5 year (so far !) back to the shell restoration.

I love the colour!
Anyway, hopefully now the really hard work has been done, you can reassemble it in much less time :)

Thanks Martin, it's California Sage, originally the car was black with black leather, although I wanted to be as original as possible, it didn't work for me.

That FF has fabulous paintwork which I was lucky enough to have seen first hand.

Having also witnessed the car in its pre resto state, Charlie has certainly carried out some great metal work. Only one more Jensen to do Charlie.....or is that two???

Great colour Charlie,

Must have been at least 3 years ago I saw your FF in black primer.

Looking forward to eventually seeing the car at South West events

Black on black wouldn't work for me as well - California Sage is a good move in my book!

Apparently the first owner went on to buy a new Mk 3 FF in another colour ex factory and then had it painted black before delivery. The SP is underway but I'm under orders to take break to re instate the conservatory which had to be demolished and 250 tons of soil removed to make way for the double garage! Hopefully will be out to some JOC events in the FF this summer.
