Paint adhesion wasn't one of the `galvanised' Moke's strong points. :wink:

Flaky paint is one of the ways to easily identify galvo Mokes. Usually the rear tray goes first.

Now there's a good idea :idea:
I'm now seriously thinking about that...maybe high gloss house enamel paint.
What colours...how about Westcoast Eagles colours-blue/yellow/white.Then a mural of the Eagle across the bonnet
:oops:
