It's hard to tell the diference between the old and the new front panels !!
Must have very big tin worms in Lancashire, they certainly made a meal of it.
Got my fingers crossed for you, for the MOT on Thursday.

Be a bit canny when welding the bonnet, if you need access to the spring mechanism (unlikely I know) you'll be kippered if its all welded up!

[hotrodder13]

[hotrodder13]

it is with great sadness that in a few months this car will have a few of bits taken off it and have to be sold

[thecount]

Such a great looking car would be a shame to lose it. Can understand your sadness! Comiserations

[hotrodder13]

thanks, think its just cause of all the hard work i put into it, but the bodys to far gone for me to even try fixing it

[rossrox]

BUGGER!!! thats sure sucks!!! what wrong with it???

[hotrodder13]

needs all the floors doing, engine bay floor, boot floor, rear chassic legs, inner rear wing, inner front wings (not to bad) and it will just cost me to much to fix, the new one is getting delevered 2night and that one will be a fresh start

[rossrox]

[hotrodder13]

The wheels look great, they look more like 14 or 15 inch. Are they standard minor fitment or have you upgrade to accept mgb / scimetar wheels. Let us know the size and hubs you use and how difficult they were to find. Cheers Richard.
