Looks excellent William, your certainly good at your job.
Good stuff mate, you aint hanging about either!
Good progress mate, your really cracking on with it, fair play to yourself, is it off to the bodyshop for the rest of the paint or is it going to be all DIY ??
Good progress William - Looking much better now than when I seen it anyway :)
It Looks beautiful ;)
fecking looks mint that matey cant wait to see this finished!!!
This brilliant reconstruction, you must have spent a tremendous job, extending the wheel passes to put bigger wheels?
2nd that:thumb: wish i had space and money to do mine like yours,i realy am thinking of making a "temporary" lean to, on the back of the house to put the car in and get some work done on it,very good and neat:thumb:Quote:

In my opinion the steel wheels in 14 "I like a lot more than those of aluminum, especially if they are painted in black and silver.
