I've been working on the wheels at work over Christmas, applying HMG coach enamel under coat

These wheels were orginally on 135 as 134 was fitted with old truck wheels, I've had them sand blasted primed and new tyres fitted

Just a coat of Silver then we can start putting on the O/S lower panels

All the lower frame work on the O/S has now been primed
