Time for me to put up my tools and look for something else to do. I can not even come close to the expertise I see here! That is beautiful.

Well today was nice day to spray. The tracks , wheels etc were removed from the main body for spaying, 2--3 coats of lacquer. Re assembled everything , just a couple of touch ups after assembly.
I hope the client will be as pleased as I am with the final finish. Now that they are finished , I might be able to get back on the Mercedes Gullwing. A couple of days of charity work first. John.

I honestly don't know what to say.
That is some of the finest work I've seen!
Your craftsmanship, skill and talent are all of the highest level.
Just amazing!

I had a pleasant surprise after the new owner had inspected it. Apparently he has been to the USA to tour the Caterpillar factory and asked me if I could make him a Cat 320D excavator, not in any hurry , next year would be fine. Hope my health ,hands and fingers last until then. John.
