All graphics now fitted...now to see if we can get into Stanford Hall!

.

On Thursday morning I dropped the trailer into Biff's for it's final graphics fit, then on the way back home later in the day I stopped to pick it up and allow him to fit the last couple of sections to the car also. By 6:20pm the last piece of the puzzle was fitted and after thanking Biff for his excellent work (free of charge!) I made my way back home.

Biff is based in Newark and works from his home.This guy is not only one of the hardest working people I have ever met, but also one of the most genuine and generous also. Without the help and dedication of this guy, the design would have just remained as it was, a drawing done by Benn on a computer, but with Biff in charge of things the concept is now reality, and the car is now going to be seen by hundreds if not thousands of people, and I will help to spread the word about the wonderful work that the Leukaemia and Lymphoma charity do :-)

As I type this blog entry I am also sending a request to the organisers of the Stanford Hall Volkswagen Show which is being held on the 2nd May, asking them to allow me a pitch. It may not happen as it is quite late in the day regarding allocation of space, but you never know!. Fingers crossed that I will be lucky and get the car (and trailer) on display at this popular venue.

90% of Vinyl now fitted...looking good!

.

On Friday, Biff spent around 6 hours fitting the rest (almost!) of the vinyl to the car.Got to admit that it is now looking like it means business :-)

First stage of graphics application carried out today.

.

I set off for Newark upon Trent this morning at 08:45 and arrived at Biff's place at just after 09:15. Biff and his mate Tony began the task of applying the first stage of the graphics just after 09:30 and I got out of their way and spent a day with my family whilst they set about the task of turning Benn's design into the real thing!.

I arrived back at Biff's at a about ten past 4 and was amazed to see the progress that they had made since I had last seen the car several hours previously. I now have to go back to Newark again on Monday afternoon to get the last of the "coca cola" stripes applied to the car and trailer, then one more visit will be needed to apply the info and sponsors graphics.
