Tank / Panels paint recommendation sought

(1/3) > >>

Lobo:
Hi all,

Would like to revert my '77 F2 to the Parakeet Yellow of that year, can anyone recommend a good paint shop who'll do a great job - inc decals & lacquer coat? Been quoted at one place £350 + VAT inc the Sidepanels. (Hampshire / Reading area)

Alternative is to sell my tank / panels & buy the DSS parts, all complete @ £450+ VAT.  Anyone any experience of this replica tank quality / paint finish ... and comment whether it'd severely affect the value etc of my machine.

Cheers,
Lobo

Bryanj:
Doesn't the DS tank come in primer and the panels in black so you still have to get them painted

Lobo:
DSS now offer repro tanks + panels with decals finished in Varnish Blue or Parakeet Yellow. The blue around £390, the yellow at £450. Both tanks include fuel tap assy.

But the quality? Looking for (informed) comments ...

Lobo:
Thanks OddJob, have dropped them a line...
Cheers,
Lobo

Bryanj:
If Dave Silver is putting his name to it the quality will be as good as original
