Default Paint at last!

So happy! at last it has paint on the chassis. Roll cage has been sprayed the rest has been painted with brush and rollers. Finish on chassis is not the best but it is thick and strong so that's the main thing. And to my amazement the cage did not run at all when i painted is so happy days! got to give it 6 hours then going back at around 10-11pm tonight to do last coat to cage. Ready for final brush coat on all the rest.
