The fire was pretty overwhelming and I had brown trousers after the event ,, luckily there wasn't any damage just a bit of paint damage which actually looks worse than it is

Bitumen pads removed with a chisel and the primer lovely and untouched underneath ,,

Orange on roof untouched unbelievably ,,, just smokey black but wiped off

Phew

Decided against refitting those bitumen pads ,, at least when I lift my carpets I can see if my floors are still there and not gone flintstones on me

Bodyshell complete , engine rebuilt ,,just need to get rid of this horrible cold and get back in the garage

I'm a little bit daunted by the number of newly refurbished parts all over my dining room,but I guess once I start the pile will get smaller

I've usually found it motivating putting shiny parts back on a shiny body

Forgot to add

Biagio sent me a pic a few nights back of my newly refurbished and date matching non heart deep 6x15

It took my about two years of buying odd wheels to accomplish a matching set of these ..in fact at one point I had about 15 wheels as I had pairs or sets of three of Nov Dec and january wheels as well as other oddments but wanted a full set that complimented my jan 71 T

I don't think I've ever been so anal until I met you lot lol

Now got 4x Jan 71 with a Dec 70 spare

Looking ace ,just hope I don't kerb them ! My Mrs definitely NOT getting a go !

Cheers Bootsy ... it's all the missing bolts clips etc I'm worried about

It's giving me a headache looking at the parts diagram

Thanks James

Not seen Biagios work yet as he is re-anodising all of my other trims too and I want to collect everything at the same time .... but the pics of my wheels look great

Shell looks great despite the few set backs last year ! ......ie setting it on fire mid paint

Too many projects and not enough space !
