Finally the interior is all painted after a good 2wks prepping, primer etc.
I gave it a dust coat to get the panels tacky and ready for next 2x coats of paint, I then mixed that last little bit of paint back into the cup and added clear to about a 80% clear, the rest is color,hardener, thinners and a final coat went on, doing this gets more gloss out and because the colour is still in there it's not a clear cover coat so the paint color only goes a tiny bit darker but almost not noticable, also it doesn't look like those fake show cars mega gloss.
Here's the pics with plastic drop sheets and without..

I think that'll be it for the shell for a little while, oh 1 pic from the front with the bonnet hinges on , the gold anodize looks a good contrast
