Fantastic gaps. Looking very lovely. I think you should do something different next, broaden that experience base. Maybe a targa, perhaps a green one? What do you think?

Looks absolutely stunning. Congrats to you and Rich.....

Looks great Darren, must be very satisfying seeing it come together. Hope you get it on the road in time to use it a bit this year.

Do you think we could live with the pressure!

Everyone's kind comments are greatly appreciated and eagerly passed on to the guy that deserves the credit

Big thanks

That is mighty impressive, better than new!
Fab preparation to the metal and primer etc.

Shell now just about there....

Still a bit of final fettling, black the dash/doors, fit rubbers and tidy gaps etc. but a great stage to be at and looking forward to the car becoming a rolling shell.

Next on to Canford Classics who'll be fitting the car up for me (who better to ask

) and making sure everything goes back together exactly as intended.

I'm really pleased with how the shelled has turned out and the quality of finish - Barry's metal work was simply fantastic and laying on the paint has turned out rather well.......

Give that man a hand. And a drink. And a bloody pay rise!!! Not worthy indeed.
