Well, I went to see my car today, and nearly soiled myself with excitement but guess what, I didn't have my camera. What a pillock.

well, here is whats fitted:
Brake Booster
Heater and all firewall insulation
most of the rake lines
windscreen wiper motor (which looks the dogs)
some of the shifter linkage
reverse lights
badges
fuel cap


Now she has a bit of bling on her she looks fantastic. I couldnt be happier with the job. I am absolutely over the moon with it.

John is stripping the dash at the moment to spray all the frame etc. up.


Brought down a load of stuff for her today, angine and gearbox going in a few weeks, its really exciting.


Sorry about the lack of pics, poor show. :oops:

That would be great Lee. I have to say, yours looks almost ready to roll. Apart from the interior and some glass she looks very nearly there. John had some other customers in there yesterday admiring it. She is looking very good.


John has altered the layout of the premises now. The old metalwork shop has now been turned into the fitting shop. Just two cars down there, yours and mine. All the fitting goes on in there. Its a great place to view the cars (as long as the heater is on - it was blummin cold yestrday). Great place to be for a cuppa and a chinwag. :thumbright: :thumbright:

Good on ya Clive.
Just over 2 years so far judging by the date of your posts.
Be well worth it in the end mate. Hats off to the workshop crew for doing such a great job on it. Will be great to see it in the flesh (so to speak).
Any ideas of a completion time ?
