I intend to keep my car at least 20 paces away at all times!

Great work John.

AWESOME!

Brilliant thread from start to finish.

Thanks so much for sharing your journey mate - this is what DDK is all about.

Can't wait to see it in the flesh

Well done

lots of blood sweat and tears John,but a brilliant end result.Car doesn't look to bad in this photo,quite scary,when you think about it.
Regards,

This has been a great thread & a fantastic outcome - credit to all involved & hats off to you for undertaking so much of the work & completing it to such a high standard.

Gorgeous John, simply gorgeous. A credit to you and a great thread. A much improved colour don't you think?

A little disappointed you say it's finished when it isn't. I will have to keep my eye on you.

The under bonnet lights need fitted.

Regards
Mike

Damn you Mike the hole for the lamps in the £1200 bonnet are too small for the lamp units. I may sort that tomorrow.

Thanks for the support and very kind words. It's a great place to hang out, don't tell too many people, DDK rules.

Hearty congratulations for an epic achievement - my favourite thread on the site and the one that really sucked me into DDK

Great to see your car finished although will certainly miss the thread - I'll now have to hassle Andy to find out what's happening to his 904

Look forward to seeing you and the car again in a couple of weeks

All the best and thanks for the inspiration.

Cheers,

Stunning

Fantastic restoration, it's been great following your journey.

So what will be the next project then? !!!

Well done John you must be thrilled with it, especially having done so much work on it yourself!
Wins the Spirit of DDK award any day.

Well done. What a fantastic thread to follow this has been for an aspiring pre-74 owner!

Congratulations & enjoy CLM in it. I hope to attend the next one as I think after six years of 'normal' le mans it's time to give something else a shot.

Bloody brilliant! Inspiration for us all, thanks for posting, I have learnt so much.

Having no end of trouble trying to find a part number for the grommet/ cover that goes around the main loom where it exits the tunnel at the rear

Hi Classic

Sorry I can not be of any use I reused my old boot as it was in good nick.

Kind Regards

Brilliant story John - very inspiring, and congratulations on the final result
