Doesn't it give you a warm feeling inside, knowing it's someone else suffering and not yourself.
..only joking Mark, at least you know it will be 100% when it's finished.

I, for one, am in awe of what Mark has taken on. I saw the car on Saturday, when it still had the dash in (steering wheel still on the wrong side though ), and it looked like a massive project then, now it just looks scary!!
However, looking on the bright side...... In a few years time, mine might need doing, and as Mark will then be an expert........

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw Ferris pass-out at 31 Flavours last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

Mark
Hat off to you. I'm needing to do the same with mine in the next year or so, but have one advantage. It has no interior to fuss over. If i remove the dash i'd like the car rewired for what's just needed.
See you at croft '06 & Kevin as well.

Mark you should have taken the lights as they would have looked awesome on the white car. Chris has them and assume he is well happy with them.
MHW is the make of the rears.

Trial fit of the rear panel prior to welding
Rear panel fitted, spot welds only and lights in, again to check everything.
NEW PART"S all turned up and no dent's in any of them
checking the boot, again prior to totaly welding it (note the new battery mount
Was hopeing to get a full day on the car ... but managed 2hrs.
Fridays job, do the internal welds on the rear panel and grind out the external spots... Then start on the scuttle
P.S, Look's like the rear lights are on but they are not, its the reflection from the flash
