what has been done to it?

The dodgy wing that had been painted has been replaced with a wing that come out the factory in my colour..
A new valance on the front thats about to be colour coded
Bumper was a bit iffy, so took it off, and realised the bumper mounting point was bent, bent it back into place and bolted the bumper back on, perfect..
Brake calipers have gone from rust coloured, to red
Brake drums have gone grey instead of that all too common rust colour..
Replaced the drivers side mirror cause mine had been kicked off, thats also going body coloured..
Im replacing the nearside mirror with a german one, so its longer, and that shall be painted
Having the side skirts I got off Danny painted to I can throw them on..
Going to paint the rear valance as well...

Probably done a bit more, but since I took it off the road 15 months ago, Ive done little things here and there..

Hopefully its not too long now!

Back on the road.. Still love the car..
Car is bogging down every now and again, to the point where I have to stop and it cuts out.. I try to turn the engine over, it doesn't start.. I try again, and it doesn't start. Try once more and it usually comes on and works fine until it happens again..
With the car being stood for so long, I'm guessing the spark plugs will be mashed.. But it's not misfiring.. I'll look at the air filter and give the TB/carb a good clean as well. Happy thoug

Gave her a clean t'other day.. Just used a 2 bucket method, followed by some Renovtion compound applied with some weird polishing sponge, then sealed with Megs ultimate wax... This is the result....

Cheers mate! It will be sooner rather than later, but I wouldn't go ahead and buy one without knowing the ins and outs of what I should be looking for.. Would have to be either imp blue or flash red.. Best colours by far!
I appreciate that mate! Top man..
