prefectopop Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 For those I saw at the diner last night, you'll be pleased to know the Barracuda is now an irridescent shade of green. Simon woke me up at 3AM this morning to show it to me. Yes thats right, I fell asleep on an old car seat in the corner of the workshop.... . Respect to the Boss man for doing an allnighter - another step closer to getting it to the Mopar Euronats next weekend I shall post a photo up of it in a minute when I can find where he's put the camera...
Jimbob-Squarepants © Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 That is one funky colour, top job BTW, I expect Nettles will love that colour on his Anglia
FlashCadillac Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 If your going to the Mopars mate i shall see you there... ill be in the Escort im sure youll see me drooling over the cuda at some point. Whos is it?
prefectopop Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 That is one funky colour, top job BTW, I expect Nettles will love that colour on his Anglia It's a special colour for Greenfish Racing. We've named it NumbNuts Green Nettles will have to apply in writing to John Turner who owns the car for permission to use it lol.

Whos is it? I think we'll be going up on the Saturday but the car will be there all weekend. Off up the workshop again in a minute to satin black the bonnet - will take some more photos of it then. Incidentally the colour is based on the colour found on the new Mazda 2 - Spirit Green. We've used it as a base then breathed a little Mitchville Magic on it - should have a gold pearl in it so when the sun shines it should blind the racer in the lane next you lol.

Whos is it? It's a guy called John Turner, runs it in Pro ET. Him and his team will be up there from Thursday night I think. It's got a freshly built 440 lump in it too so we're hoping for some good numbers out of it.
pelvins Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 thats a wicked colour..i want it for my fiesta!!
prefectopop Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 As I said - permission in writing to Mr Turner lol. We're going up to unmask it in a minute if you fancy a brew and a look be there in about 40 mins.
Nettles Posted July 20, 2008 Report Posted July 20, 2008 I fooking love that colour! I must have NumbNuts green for my Pop.
prefectopop Posted July 20, 2008 Author Report Posted July 20, 2008 just got back - we've unmasked it and put the black graphics down the sides. It looks the nuts! I am so tired now tho - I need to sleep but still have masses of work to do before the morning!
FlashCadillac Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Pics! More pics! Is the engine and interior in it... Or is that still to do before the weekend?
Nettles Posted July 21, 2008 Report Posted July 21, 2008 Can't help but keep looking at that pic. Geoff have you got anything kicking around your workshop thats got some of that NumbNuts green over spray on it? I'd like to hang it up in my workshop as inspiration to get my Anglia finished

Geoff have you got anything kicking around your workshop thats got some of that NumbNuts green over spray on it? I'd like to hang it up in my workshop as inspiration to get my Anglia finished We had to mix some more of it up last night - one of the crew fitting it up managed to put an 8 inch gash down the side, rigth down to the metal. Simon did another allnighter last night to paint and get it right ready for the screens to go in this afternoon. I'm sure we can get a little bit of paint on a bit of card for you to hang up. Stay tuned - just uploading some photos of it with the cuda stripes on it
prefectopop Posted July 22, 2008 Author Report Posted July 22, 2008 Put these on it on sunday evening - really works nicely with the green
frenchy Posted July 22, 2008 Report Posted July 22, 2008 thats phat mate you boys do a sweey job keep it up.
