Received my wheels back today. I had them blast cleaned and then powder coated and oven baked in Old English White. Just to get the tyres stuck on.[frame]Image[/frame]

Boy, that's beautiful. Going to have some of my own wheels done soon.

Just the front suspension to check and rebush, then coachline to paint on and then buffing and polish before it comes home for me to finish off.

Thanks David and Stephen for the offers I might need pulling out of a hole at some stage. :roll:

Dad and me got stuck in today, great days work which included fitting the new bumper valances, bumper blades, overriders, wiper arms/blades, number plate lamp, all badges and door escutcheons, new water pump, thermostat and distributor points, cap and rotor arm. Old rotor arm causing engine not to start last night. :roll: [frame]Image[/frame]

David was right about the bumper valances and lining everything up, the rear was a real patience tester.
