looks like an excellent project! im really impressed with the thoroughness and quality of it in general. if i had the money, i would also like to replace the master and slave cylinders in my engine bay. it really looks good. its a pity that you cant see all the nicely painted bits and pieces hidden on the subframes under the car.
im also busy with a project which is posted on this forum. check it out...
cheers

Hello guys,
Sorry for not posting weather been so bad, so have been gathering some parts got myself some bargains off ebay, a bonnet £10 mint condition and a genuine door skin.
Fitted the door skin but forgot to take some pics but will tomorrow, was worried about fitting it but turned out ok, just needs a skim of filler here and there.

Just a quick update, the clubby will be taking a back seat at the moment, been a change in my circumstances due to the credit crunch i have been made redundant, so my priority is to find work, but watch this space i maybe popping on with some pics very soon.
