Brasilia and Jamboree....

Been a very busy couple of weeks at Autostyl...

first off with our local show approaching - The Cornwall VW Jamboree, the Brasilia got a makeover... and looks all the better for it!



First, some hours flatting and masking up to lay in some panelpaint.



silver sealed...



gold base and gold metalflake laid down, then off with the masking...



House of Kolor Tangerine Kandy applied over the lot - and cleared...



after a couple of days - the clear was flatted back to lose the edges of the artwork, then masked up for more detail...



On with some black base - and then the GREEEEN Flake...

Then off again with the masking - uber carefully... and on with a nice flowing few coats of clear....





With the car back together and the marquee packed up - it was off to the Jamboree...

a great weekend, great people and some more silverware for the Brasilia, this time in the Aircooled Sedan Modified class - up against some super clean bugs.

Mike and Glenda's westy also took first in the Bay class, hopefully first of many...

Over the weekend George striped up an award we'd flaked and kandied the week before - and the Autostyl Car of the Weekend award was born....

The first lucky recipient(s) were Mark and Paul with their Airbus- nice car guys... had the type of stance we like..... on the floooorr! Pictured here - Ant and Mark outside the official prize giving...
