Cheers, the lady's staying, you'll just have to try and control yourself! And distraction is the right word.

Just found an amusing photo of me when I was a little younger..

Same for the other side..

C pillars were fun too..

And t'other side

And then there was the rear of the N/S/R arch, and the tail end of the rear N/S quarter.

The O/S is perfect, strangely.

Also fixed a broken bit on the lamp bar.

Only worked til 2:00 today, the weather was too good to be stuck in the garage getting showered in sparks.

I now need to sell something so I can buy floor pans, Sills, and bulkhead panels..

Think about fitting three-point rear belts at this stage, lap belts are useless. :)

Hmm, not too concerned about them, so long as it passes an MOT I'll be happy enough!
