Hi John,
That left hand corner of the catcher is pretty easy work with a dolly and hammer and no need to replace it over that.
The colour is pretty good from where I'm sitting. The Alpine green SB used was not consistent over the years and it seemed to get lighter as the years rolled on until they totally changed to Apple Green in late 1976.
Can I please ask that you reduce your file sizes of your images as it creates work for the Mods so that they can be seen instantly ?
Cheers,
BB.
PS. We still haven't seen any images of your Model 17 completed.
