Just an update before more parts come back from the painter . The rebuild of the doors is now well underway one down half way through the other , a bit of head scratching to begin with as I received the doors as bare shells without glass etc...everything now practically brand new.

The centre console now in after having its top sun damaged section replaced at the trimmers....very happy with the job they did. The seats runners have been changed with modern ones and the base cushions sprung to prevent sagging.

With the resto now heading for a home run and the difficult work behind me I will be totally glad to see the back of it. Was hoping to have the car at Eurofest but looks like it wont happen :violin: :violin:

really impressive resto, keep the photo's coming. Just an observation though, if you wish it to be more how they were originally made, you need to use more evo stik and black silicon, and it's got to look tatty as well!!!
Joking apart, top job..........Looks fantastic!!!!
