Overriders sent away for re-chroming. They have arrived back like new, all dents repaired and highly polished. Excellent job from Saj at Chrome Fix.

Car is nearly ready.
Its sad but I actually really like knowing that the small things are clean. Interior lights are out with the new head cloth going in.

Sonic bath. More rewarding than cleaning the wife rings!

I have had the front windscreen replaced and the new glass has a clip design for the rear view mirror? My original mirror will not connect to this, is there an easy solution for this, can a mirror be bought that clips in?
Or best to get the original bonded on?

Some pictures of my car almost finished, took my daughter out for a spin, she loved the leg room in the rear.
All the interior has come up really well with some cleaning and a bit of care.

Wow Tom,
That does look stunning. The door gaps on that drivers side look perfect. Interior looks great too.
Where is the other seat? Still cleaning?
Regards
Mike
