Z1 Paintwork

#1 PostAuthor: AndrewA » Mon Nov 11, 2019 9:15 pm

Just started a restoration of a '72 Z1 and looking for recommendations for someone who can do the paintwork.

It's going to be candy orange / brown and did consider a new paint set from Z-Power but as the tank, panels and tail piece are good I'd like to keep the originals and have them painted provided i can guarantee a good standard.

Who's the go to people for this? I know Richie from Ormskirk used to do a lot of Z1's but not sure if he still does.

Thanks in advance. Andrew.

Richie's still doing Zeds. Done several for me and always quality work.
