No not at the moment. Much to cold to be doing anything on it at the moment

Right, long over due update.
Been cracking on with various things

Wheel arches in High Build -
Very pleased with the finish on these.




They were then rubbed down and painted -








Also fitted this -


Got the indicators fitted although they are not wired up yet -




Thats it for now. Need to get the head unit and amp fitted and wired in and i need to buy some rear seats.

Whilst looking through some old photos my Mum found this photo of her wedding day and wedding car .... -

Safe to say it was a very long time ago.

Would love to hear your comments as always.

Andrew.

Looking Great! But that fog has got to go in your rear lamp, its spoiling the smoothness of the rear!

looking fantastic mate we are both not far off from finishing now:) will have to meet up when they are complete only 2 hours away from eachover. also dont no if you can help me but i am going to attempt the headlining the weekend and i was wondering do i start from the front and work my way back? or from back to front? and will i be fine on my own doing it?

[Andrew O]

Oh trust me, I hate the fog just as much as you but Mr MOT man says it has to be there. Rest assured it will 'fall off' ;) after the MOT.

Somehow I think you'll finish before me Tom, meeting up sounds like a good idea to me.

The headlining won't be as difficult as you're anticipating but still don't underestimate it. I'm not sure if it make any difference but I started from the back and worked to the front which seemed to work for me. It will be much easier if you can get a second pair of hands, I think you might struggle on your own.

Cheers Rhys, I was a bit sceptical about spraying myself but I picked up a lot of experience in work and I've done I half decent job in my opinion.
Should be more progress soon

Just ordered the headunit and amp.
Will be using the amp to power the two speakers in the heel board and the small speakers will be powered straight from the headunit.
