I am going to be spending the next few days looking for some deep dish centrelines. Should be going to speak to pete nxt week to get a price on giving it a full respray. Any xcess rot i find tomorow will be geting cut out and will be taking it with me to work to make a new piece and get it elded in. Luckily I found f..k all requiring this so far.

if you want any decent pics taken or progress pics taken then let me no mate, and ill pop round sometime

Good luck with it mate, and as scooby said, be sure to keep us posted

seen this as i drove past yesterday

good project matey but please please dnt ruin it, do it nicely its a classic an deserve to b restored wel

started striping the interior out today and I noticed the floorpan has neva had any patches which is nice. Am going to be ordering 2 new treadplates and grinding the old ones out as they are rusty although repairable the replacment panel is only £8 each. Aswell as this it needs a replacment front section(piece below headlights similar to a bumper) the one I removed to day had loadsa rot. The replacment is going to be a fibreglass one as this is cheaper and i feel is better as it wont rust again. I am hoping to get it in for its respray the end of next month. Would like to get hold of my rims first.

I dont know if Im missing something but you say respray, are you getting it sprayed the same colour or a different colour?

different am going for a two tone a very light blue at the bottom and white on the top. I will find a pic of the one Im trying to get it to look like for ya

I just got insured at £145 a year am chuffed. As for the car im not it drives poop lol. Ive removed the carpets to expose any past welding and its had none if any the hole floor pans have been replaced as their imaculate. Purchased a new front fibreglass bumper and upon further inspection it need a new rear aswell. I had a gud estimate qoute from automotion and it will be going in near the end of august.

nice, certianly is different, if what you say is true then this should turn out to be a monster..................but i think your copying me slighty

Seen your motor at the rock on tuesday should turn out to be a good project.

Deffo get a smaller steering wheel maybe one of a bus

Its good to see sombody doing somthing to a older car like it matey.
