[Redlight]

nice attention to the details.

what is the name of the red colour you had it painted?

I am just in the throws of my own 92 cooper resto. It is nice to see someone is walking the same path as I am and at almost the same spot in the progress.

All my new suspension is in, and now I am onto the interior.

I was putting the headliner in today. Quite a task, though it is not quite done. I am waiting for the glue to cure on the first 90%, the last 10% can be completed tomorrow.

Good luck and keep up with the photos.

This looks really nice its gonna look quality when its done, really like the fog lamp inset, top marks for origanality

My resto is not as complicated as yours. I left the powerplant in, just pretty much doing everything else.

How did you decide upon the mazda red? I selected a Chrysler red called PRH (http://www.chrysler.com/en/2008/300/). It has a nice pearl in it.

I am still fighting with the headliner. I am down to the rear corners next to the rear glass. A few wrinkles yet to get out.

Nice work on the drive components. I am sure it will be tough to get all that dirty after you begin driving it.

I haven't yet put my work up on the forum, however I do have lots of shots to post when I get some time.
