Careful progress this weekend. Getting some parts ready to go. Clearing out alot of the stored parts which is nice.

Rear bumper on, back seat in, some carpet in & one seat belt almost in.

 That would be nice. I reckon it's a possibility. I don't get to Prescott as often as I would like.

Just read this for the second time. It wasn't until I got to the last few pages that I realised that I had read it before! lol but well worth reading again.

Stunning work mate. It looks great

Thanks, don't think I'd enjoy it much doing it twice though!

Stuck some bits of carpet & underlay in last night. Hopefully get most of done by the end of the week.

Having a nightmare painting the rear number plate light plinth. Paint keeps reacting. Have two on the go at the moment to increase my chances! Also just when I think I've got it sussed I see a paint blemish, so back to the start. I'm determined this won't beat me now!!

and to think it looked like this 3 years ago. Completely amazed.

 Thanks, I feel it is a subtle improvement. Some of the ventilation features on the bonnet could have been useful. I would comment on the front panel but it doesn't really have one in this view. Hopefully the car will appreciate my efforts & now provide me with years of reliable motoring!

Would be a great venue for a mini show...

I just had a solid flick through this whole thread and it was some impressive work to get it together, not much left to do now
