I get the same thing - loads of pages and photos but not many comments. I love what you're doing here and think it's going to be a fantastic sleeper when finished, especially in hearing-aid beige :thumbsup: :teehee:

Its actually off-white in colour (with the tail gate from my blue one, as the black one it came with was in pretty poor shape) i also have a passenger wing to go on it as its pretty beat up, once its all been straightened out, its having a full respray to get the body work up to a mint standard, even painting the sills body colour, and during all that the B18c4 will be shoe horned into the blue shell so i know where everything goes so when its swapped to the white shell, ill know exactly what needs what where :)
