I have finished more than this video shows but don’t want to post a 20 minute video that will bore everyone to tears 😭 😆… so here’s the first half. Huge thanks to Patrick who’s already spent hours chatting through my requirements and offering great suggestions on how to improve things.

Fantastic ice blue
Very similar colour to ford ceramic blue from the 80s sprays on light drys darker and deeper challenging to colour match but worth it as it really popps. Looking 😎
Getting there Gordy 😊🙌
Great attention to detail all the way 😊
One tries Gordy, one tries 😆🤪
very nice
Cheers bud 🙌
😊🙌
Wow, hi from Prague. You are doing such a great job. It really is coming together. Very satisfying to watch the progress.
Thanks Prague 😊👊
Can't seem to find your Instagram ,do you have another page?
Hi bud, no I came off instagram a while ago.
@@air_cooled_andy you wouldn't happen to know of any other covins for sale.. I missed out on one on eBay a few months ago?
@@LiamsmartifyIf you’re on Facebook then join us on the ‘Covin 250 Club’ page. They come up now and again here and there and we usually find them first 👍
Very, very nice. great progress!
Thanks!
That looks soooo good Andy! I’m lovin that blue with the black centered ‘Fuchs’. Are you going to use and rubber btwn the bumper and front wings? 😀👍👍
Thanks Johnathan! Yep I’ve got a second hand ‘smile’ rubber strip to go in there. 👌
Awesome!
Thank you! Cheers!
badass! cheers from USA brother
Hey, thanks!
Looking really good, glad you went with blue all over. I used to have a picture of a blue RSR on my computer for ages in similar blue with carrera down the side. If you google Light Blue 911 RSR it comes up with quite a few. Just the perfect colour combo… thanks for update 👍
Yeah I’ve been looking at online pics of this colour and style over the last year Tim 🤩👌
@@air_cooled_andy HaHa I thought you might have, great choice, will follow with interest Andy 👍
@tim205Mi 😆 Cheers Tim 😁
Opted for a single solid colour after all! Looks great. Splitter will certainly differentiate it. Love a good front splitter.
Thanks DW. How’s yours coming along?
Niiiiice up date....love the progress........😎👍
Thanks 👍
Proper!
I personally think all blue, but ultimately your decision lol.. 👍
Yeah I’m with you there Tim, I’m going all blue after all. 🤩👍
Great job 👍🏽 Wish I was closer to Britain. I'd come and help you. Just for the fun of it. Rob, Cairns, Australia 🦘
Nice comment, thanks Rob. 😄🙌
I like how it is going 👍
Thanks Alex, me too! 🤩
Very neat.....cheers....👍
Niiiiiiice job.....🤓👍👍
Thanks bud 😊
Почему бы не оклеить авто виниловой пленкой? К тому же, это позволит нанести гоночную ливрею на кузов.
👍
Вчера вечером я думал о том же 😄 Хорошая идея, но здесь, в Великобритании, получить полный пакет услуг стоит дорого.
Wow, great so pleased to see the paint going on. For sure buy more paint and cover the bumpers in blue. So pleased for you as I know how much effort you have put into the build and also this channel, you started again about 3 times? Hi from Prague.
Thanks Prague! Yeah I think I’m going to go blue bumpers after looking at many pics online! May go white or orange bumpers later down the line. ☺️
Nice work Andy. Now almost the last stretch with paint jobs. I really wanna see final result once all painted and panels etc fitted. Keep it up buddy
Yeah on the home stretch now! Thanks buddy 🤩🙌
Looking good. I've been following a long for a while now and it's coming on a treat.👍🏻I thought about one of those spray gun lights, was it any good? And you may have mentioned your spray hood in one of your other vids, I can't recall, does it use a lot of air?
The gun light was excellent! It would have been even better if I could have evacuated the overspray mist faster but can’t do a lot about that unless I was to buy a bigger fan. The hood and gun used nearly all my compressor output which is 36 CFM. It was on almost constantly.
Yes I have the same problem with over spray mist and my eyes are getting older , hence the need for the light 🤣. Also the over spray sticks to the mask I have at the moment making it a double whammy. I think the hood would be too much for my compressor, but thanks for the info. 👍🏻
Old age eyes, I know the feeling!! The hood has removable plastic sheets on the front, I went through 3 doing this job.
Looking great! I also like the white bumpers, maybe with some white door number circles or other graphics
Yeah deffo agree with that 👌👌👌
Bumper looks great in white, I'd definitely be leaving it like that 😊
Well done mate. I am still interested in the inner structure idea.
I saw a playlist of this about a month ago and seeing updates of it ever since. It's nice to see it getting a fresh coat of pain after a long while.
Yeah it’s made a huge difference! 🙌
Weird I didn't get alerted for this video. Saw the body spray job before this. 😅 I remember you saying about the compressor, seeing what was inside of it though... geez.
I quite like the white bumpers also. Some white porsche decals down the side to set it off. I think it lends itself really well. Amazing work, as usual. I'm sure you'll sort the blemishes.
It’s a tough call this one! Really can’t decide! 😆
razor blade the paint runs first great work btw.
Cool, thanks 🙏
Looks Great Andy! 🙌 Was the Paint Gun Flashlight any good?
Yeah great Finn! Worked well!
Gulf Blue? I really like it…looks great! 😀👍👍 I do like the white bumpers. And would look even more ‘race car’ running sans rockers.
It’s not quite gulf blue - nearly but not quite 😄
💪👍👍👍
Peal white nice color blue
I love the blue and if it was me, I would paint the lower white bits blue as well - great work 👍
Ta bud! That’s 1 blue v 4 white so far. 😁
Looks fantastic 👏. I'm agreeing to the white lower half too . A little run removal tip I learned later on in my painting career is to use a razor blade (single sided so you can hold it) , tiny bit of masking tape at each end of the blade so you're only using 50% of the middle then drag it across the top of the run at roughly 90 degrees back and forth until most of it's gone. This stops the sandpaper rubbing the paint off around the run . Long winded from me but hopefully it'll help . Love the car and constantly searching for a covin body shell like I mentioned previously ,cheers
I was hoping you’d have some run fixing tips! Thanks buddy 🤩 I recommend joining the Covin 250 Facebook page lots of us on there, Covins come and go on there too 👌
@@air_cooled_andy 😅 I am a bit predictable yes but hopefully it helps mate . Thanks for the group recommendation I'll go and join , good luck 👍
I like predictable mate! See you on the FB page!
@@air_cooled_andy yes mate 100% if you've got insta I'll gladly communicate about products etc , just so bored working on minibuses 😅
i really was hoping you where doing to top blue and the bottom white. it really sets off the colors so well imo.
Amazing
Thanks ☺️
I really like the white bumpers. Before you mentioned, I was already thinking it was super cool contrast!
Yeah I was thinking that too. 🤔 🤩
Some great techniques on the tube on how to eliminate (excessive paint flow areas) sounds better 😅 thats going to come up like glass Andy. Great finish gun fresh.
Hi Gordy, yeah been watching some stuff already 😆
Well done. I'm sure you will get the minor imperfections sorted. I quite like the white. It's something different
Cheers Chris, yeah I kinda’ do too!
Thank goodness that compressor issue is sorted before the final paint. The dence foam sanding block is a great idea for that curvey body .
Hi Gordy, hope you’re well. Yeah that foam worked really well. 🙌
Great work 👏 and I'm guessing gulf colours? Stunning 😍
Thanks bud! I’m going for blue and white at this point, I fancy doing some sort of Tamiya tribute kinda thing. Could be fun. Gulf has always been an option and still could be down the line. 🤔
@@air_cooled_andy a tamiya fan too !! That sounds perfect
Just gotta fit some giant servos to it next 😆
@@air_cooled_andy 😅🙌
Looks great
Thanks Chris 🙌
Superb work as always. Shame about the hassel with the last compressor. Anymore thoughts with regards to bonnet?
Hi Andy, yeah bit of a pain with that, you win some, you lose some eh! Bonnet outlet is gonna stay in one piece I think, small vents but with some shaping. Hoping to get back on that next week, aiming to spray the body this Friday or Saturday. 👌
Great Video! 🫡
Cheers Finn! Hope you’re well. 😎👌
Love the color and such a fun build to follow! Great job.
Thanks Patrick! Love the V8 Miata! What a beast 😱🙌
Thanks
Thanks Trude! what a supportive wife I have 🙌😄
man, this is a such a fun project. can't wait to see it on it rolling on the road
Yeah it’s great fun! Me too bud, me too 😁🙌
Hello, I'm from Brazil, I wanted to do this project but I don't know where to start
Hello! welcome.. See if you can find a 911 kit car body anywhere. Probably not that easy to find in Brazil! 🤔
