Finally finished Bessies restoration. 
Started in Nov 2010, completely stripped down, bead blasted, resprayed and lovingly assembled by me and me mate Tel . Moted yesterday and ready to load onto trailer to take around europe next week.
A brief history, Car was left to me by my father 15 years ago and has sat in the garage since. Decided in Oct last year to restore to take on our holiday next week as a run around whilst visting european cities. The last 7 months has really given us a taste for the next project (possibly a traveller?)
We're visiting portugal on route to go to Terry's niece's wedding (shes using the car !!)
Thanks for the help recieved on the forum and to Bull Motif and Charles Ware (most helpful)
Also big shout out to Greg (Spencewood interiors ) for the leather seat / door panel restoration
