Post by eamon1.3 » Sun Feb 07, 2010 5:18 pm

Got this last month, just sold my scala so time to start on this. Needs a fair wee bit, will keep me busy over the next year or so. Rare car as you all now, original irish one with a nice registration :vcool:

Done a bit of striping today, bit of damage on the front right to sort, passenger side not too bad. What does worry me though is the bottom hinge on the drivers door, seems to be alot of play in the metal there :( And the scuttle pannel. Gonna need a front pannet too

Just about a full dustpan, it was a small one though. If a gust of wind caught the drivers door it would look alot worse :hehe:
