That is what i call a good vapour finish. The tank and panels look spot on Drew.

Thank you for your interest in my painter contact.

His name is Charlie Seward, based in Somerton - 07736 970991.

In terms of price: how does £750 sound, INCLUDING my frame, swing arm, stands, etc... all dipped and finished in black two pack (sorry, but I don't like powder coat finishes on classic bikes)?

Almost forgot to mention, he also fabricated a frame bracket for me which, let's face it, is stock-in-trade type work for anyone repairing classic car bodies.

Enjoy!

Drew your tank looks fantastic...  ;D

but I did spot one minor flaw - it's not parakeet yellow  :P

I think it's a good choice of frame finish btw
