Thanks for that Keith its good to know. Had my wisdom teeth pulled out yesterday and that didnt hurt as much as knowing she didnt serve over seas Never mind she wont be sent to the scrap dealer, i have given the old girl her name its..........Clementine. I named her after the wife of a Boar War prisoner.

I agree Shane, I reckon they look stunning in desert scheme. As you say there's plenty of khaki green around, so yours will certainly stand out from the crowd. In effect it will be a ME replica, except for the hatch. In due course you could build a body and paint some AIF markings on to complete the picture.

LOL Shane, you can do whatever you like! You can always consider khaki and light stone camo when it's ready for it's next repaint.

Default Paint Colour

Hi Shane- my research established the colour as Light Stone. I am restoring an F15 and will finish up with this colour. I obtain all my paint from Protec in the Port and they have all the formulas. The base paint is their engine enamel.
