Few more hours work over a few days to fit some more of the interior panels.

This is a great thread Rich, I almost bought one of those kits at Detling myself all those years ago

Loving the Vids!!

In the winter I need to do my rear wishbones and coil overs so hopefully you’ll be up and running with an additional shot blasting cabinet by then???

Cheers Tony,
Got a blast cabinet already, something else I have blown the dust off for this although I do find it rather more hard work than all the videos I have seen, seem best to only use it for the hard to get at areas.

Just caught up with the videos Rich. Coming along well.

Looking forward to the testing. Temps have got to be a vast improvement on what you started with. And you'll be able to see what's cooking! :D
