Well the car is well onto it's way of being finished at the bodyshop, have to say I'm over the moon with what they have done and their professionalism, I've heard so many story's of bodyshops letting people down and taking months and months to complete work, I'm glad to say after doing my research I found a diamond, if anyone lives near north Hampshire and needs a bodyshop just ask and I'll pass on the details.
Anyway less talk, let's see the pics

I really am over the moon, it's taken me 2 and a half years to get to this point and I've learnt a lot along the way.
Now I get to put it all back together again and start putting on all the expensive bits I've been gathering.
Oh if anyone is wondering the colour is VW cornflower blue.

Looking smart mate, really has come a long way since I saw it best part of 2/3 years ago!

Yes it been a long journey and I've learnt a lot along the way, looking forward to bolting bits back on.
How's your saloon?

It'll be a real gem at the end mate! It's still waiting for me to build my fiesta, may buy the turbo this month as a treat. Want to pull the engine again and change some bits I done
