I have to disagree with the poo colour.

My replacement shell is russet brown, and seeing it all the time while im working on the car just makes me sad. I associate the colour with rust and pain and stuff now!

Can't wait till she goes back to black!

well hello everyone long time no post!!

well offered up my o/s door fitted with new skin ,low and behold there was
a big gap between the top of the door and the 'A' panel so i had to weld on a strip
of 4mm plate to take up the gap, then sand it to profile

offered up the N/S door and had a gap at the very top, plated and partly
sanded, needs some more fetling
