Gary Montgomery from just outside Crossgar if so. His General is well known.
I'm not surprised, it is definitely attention grabbing.
Looking class by the way. Glad you got the painting sorted out.

The hosting company took my web site down because it was using too much CPU power. Most of the images should be fixed now and they're hosted on my own server here at home so the connection will be slow.
The paint is ok - I definately wouldn't use that type of paint again and there are a number of things I would change if I was to do it again but it'll do!

No - it was some guy from down south. He mentioned that there was also someone from the north with a General but it was off the road getting work at the minute?

Half doors on and roof off!! If only it was warm enough to drive like this all the time. Big thanks to @Blackwater Graphics for the door logos.
It's at the MCM Comic Con exhibition this weekend at the Eikon Exhibition centre at the Maze...

Got it back from the event slightly worse for wear.
Thankfully the interior appears to be still in good condition apart from the paint peeled off the interior panel of the half doors (something I was going to do anyway when I change the interior colour to grey/green).
I saw pictures on instagram last night of some girl draped across the bonnet so I had to ask them to put a barrier around it for today but obviously by that stage the damage had been done...
And finally after spending about 30 minutes rebuilding the soft top it was ready to go home. You can really see from this photo how faded the rest of the soft top is compared to the half door tops (correct colour).

I didn't mind them sitting in it to get photos taken but it seems they took the piss a bit and then it was spoiled for everyone else. Everyone seemed to really enjoy it and it was the only vehicle there which I was surprised about. I'll be making a JP style fence for it in future
Luckily it's just the two side steps and I have a little bit of the paint left so it should be a relatively easy fix.

Saw this at the Cavalcade on Friday night. Every time you drove past I sang the JP theme tune quite loudly in your direction. You never noticed
My son had the JP theme tune playing at full blast inside the Jeep too
It's hard to see anyone at all during the cavalcade you're concentrating so hard on making sure no one walks out in front of you or something.I've wasted no time in getting it repaired. The side steps are off (gonna need another 16 rivets now to put them back on again!).
They'll have to be sanded right back to the bare plastic then plastic primed, then primed and then painted again. Such a lot of work for some idiot standing on them in the wrong place.
