    Looking very nice there. Could eat your dinner off that.

    Keep up the good work, it's nice to see someone saving a shell for once.

    Looked lovely before and is looking lovely again.

    Why on earth was this car broken for parts in the first place, such a travesty!

    LOL. Thanks for that here's a mini update.

    Front done now apart from brake lines ( Need some dark bronze touch up paint for the Rota's if any one knows where i can get it )


    So its time to begin on the rear. The chassis is solid with only a little surface rust so thats good. Just need to strip the subframe down and go from there.

    Time for a little update.

    I was very suprised with the condition off the rear, only light surface rust apart from around one off the exhaust hangers.

    So after removing all old seam sealer, stitch welded around the rear then electroloxed it seamsealed it, stone chip and 2 K white..

    I must spend about 10 hours a week on it by average, and yes its all been done on blocks.
    Its not to bad doing it like this as long as you get it nice and high.
