Well, back on the car inbetween different projects, started cleaning up the clocks, bought a few spares at the MIni spares day. Stripped the clocks down and have repainted the rims in satin black, cleaned up the casing. Will replace the circuit board with the new one from Mini Spares. Primed the brackets, will top coat in gloss black when it gets warmer. Had to repaint the new petrol tank, scratched with gouges so just skimmed some filler over the deeper scrapes. Aiming to pick up some spare doors from Hileyy Hall maybe, need the door mechanisms and window winders etc.

Taking all of the etch coat off large flat panels and flatting back as much as possible on challenging areas. Do I need to weld up these mirror holes and re-drill for chrome mirrors?

Your probably better leaving those there, to allow you to fit alternative styles of mirrors if the bullet type don't suit. There is an adapter kit on minispares for this purpose.
