Hi Steve,
I forgot to ask ,in my last message, for the details of your chrome workers and sprayers ( both of whom have done a stunning job )
. I was wondering how much the spray work cost as I feel I want to take my A10 to that level if I can and want to start budgeting for a winter stripdown/repaint .
I appreciate any help you can give ,
Ray

For powder coating the hubs I worked with the wheel builder who managed that as a part of the build process. I used Brickwoods who advertise in the comics and are excellent. They are close to you near Salisbury.
I heartily recommend them all, but please be aware they are not the cheapest! The cost depends heavily on the starting point - if there is much preparatory work to be done on the parts it multiplies the work, and they can only tell you after they have seen the bits.
You may want to work with someone local to you - inevitably questions arise and I found it necessary to go and see them several times while the jobs were in progress. Coming from Salisbury every time could be a pain. However I'm sure you would be pleased with the results, as I am.
good luck
Steve
