There’s a massive lack of photos on this thread. Just saying, we want to see how you’re getting on.

Adjusted for accuracy.

No pictures recently as not very interesting to look at TBH.
But if you want pictures as of today here goes.....

My proudest work so far is the cover over the original rear view mirror mount. The metal mount doesn't come off without smashing the windscreen, so I found a bottle lid which fits perfectly. Sprayed it black and stuck it over the mount. It will have a 'period' sticker at some point in the future.

Lots of painting and all the prep that entailed. Bonnet release and brackets installed. New wiper motor installed (but not wired yet).
Body and new bumper brackets installed. I had to fabricate a lot of the body bracketry as the seller of my kit had 'other' ideas as to how the body should be fitted! Still can't work out how he thought it was going to stay attached TBH.
