Carmine 1500 tc

#1 Post by aodanosiurdain »

Made good progress on my 1500 tc over the last few days. Most of the body work sorted. I used a few rattle cans and as I just matched up the colour by eye i was very pleased with the match. The first pic is when i got it last Summer and the second was taken today.
