Change of plan, didnt want to go too far with my first project so kept it simple, got it solid again and now ready to paint Decided to do a mk1 style bonnet and waiting on a funky grille arriving, just few wee bits different. Engine is also away to get a few wee bits done Pictures if him nearly ready to get colour...........










Anyone want to guess the colour?


A few pictures of the mess the place is in with mini bits and the landy in the other section over the pit.




Some more work tomorrow then might show you some colour shots, cant wait to get some paint on.
