Nice vivid colour Owen!
Just period-right.

You must feel a bit of relief and progress right now, and ready for the long detail/re-fit. Tidy that garage while you can and paint the floor (having just done the same to mine while the cars are away.)

Keep going, spring and summer approaching FAST! 8)

Good to see the shiny bits going back on. All of a sudden you see a car emerge from all the hours of graft! :)
