Hi,
Not done much on the car other than sort the clutch out with a new slave cylinder, I have started to rebuild the original cylinder ready for when it is rebuilt as to me originality is key.
I have also been collecting original parts for the car:

I wouldn't say no to a nice Mk 1 Metro. Good luck with the project  :)

 

 

What did you paint the slave cylinder with? It looks good.
