Bought from a TC member, arrived dirty and dusty but with very little wear. Surprisingly easy clean up, although with this one i was most particular and ran every screw, bolt and nut through the ultrasonic cleaner numerous times ! The shell was stripped of the original paint scheme and repainted with bright silver (for a bit more pizzazz than the normal PS-12 silver). The undercowl was the most difficult part to strip - hammerite paint is pretty tough stuff. Repainted undercowl in smoke to show off the nice carbon chassis plates. Parma modded motor reinstalled, but now i have the Dynatech (thanks Wez) the Parma will be rehoused into a Avante 2001 project. Very happy with the outcome, although i'm scared to run it now !

Looks mint mate, great job, especially on that shell which looks brand new, that's the problem with restoring an Egress, when it's finished, you're scared to give it the beans lol
