Sorry Harley - the Aussie ones came out Pom when clicked on, perhaps if you click these they'll invert... :P

That's still in my garage (actually its in the garden this week while the D*lly was being worked on) but as and when I've got spare cash I've been doing bits and pieces on it. I hope that in the next couple of weeks it'll be on its wheels.

Not much to report on this, except I've removed the chevron sticker on the bonnet and the headlight peaks and attempted to polish up the wings which don't look tooo bad. I had intended to get a litre of white and get stuck in to painting the rest of it to a reasonable standard but I haven't managed to get round to it.

Always a sound move.

Rear seat belts are all fitted now but I still need to put it back together and I think I'm going to add some gussets to the upper mounts for which I need some steel sheet.

Oh, also, while I think about it, is the boot hinge the same profile as the rear door hinge?

Pictures of rear seat belts. Not the most exiting addition to a car but this is my take on it. Gussets still to be added.

I had a go on the red bits with some G3 cutting paste and some Auto Glym Super resin polish it took me lot of effort. They're still shite but vastly better than they were, fairly presentable even.

Haven't had the roof on it much since the weather's been pretty nice recently. Still a lot of bodywork to do, plus the bootfloor has actually fallen out of it. It's not attached at any point which is a pain in the arse really, as it'll need doing for an MOT and can't really be patched up like the other bits.

I think you need to upgrade to a flamethrower.
