This is a bit of a test to see if I can add photos ok and to justify some of the stupid questions I have asked. Hopfully I will start putting it all back together over Christmas<br>
<br>

by the way, anyone know what the small bracket is by the bottom hinge location on the passenger side. You can see it on the last photo.

Its used for spacing out the wing, Its quite pliable to allow the wing to either fit close or be pushed outwards.
Looking good by the way

Thanks jonathon, praise indeed coming from someone who does what you do. Did you see my question about the type9 rear mount. I would appreciate your advice

I bought the shell with all the hard work done. I had to replace the rear quater panels, roof guttering, repair the boot bottom and I made the Marina pedal box mount as well as all the little teeth shaped clips around the back window, That was the most fun
