Project mk1 G60-New pics pg11

well i bought this mk1 in january of this year,thought it was a solid little car but how wrong i was.thing is it had 11 months mot on it when i got so thought it was a good one.
piccys of the car



so thought i would get all the little bits sorted out thats when it became apparent that it needed quite a bit of work.

bit's iv'e had done to date are

new complete rear panel
2 new rear arch's
2 new rear quarter repair panels
both chassis repair panels under boot
both chassis repair panels under the rear beam
full front panel
both full sills
2 plates on the inner wings

The floor pans where in good condition which was a bonus.
Few pics of the bodywork to date,will be getting painted in the next 2 weeks.
excuse the quality as they where done on my phone






More better pics when i pop in again next week.

awesome work there mate, looks like a lovely car in the first place, wud benefit from some badges on the boot though, maybe buy some of those repro items that are stick on then u wont have to have a new boot, either way mate, looks like a sweet car, and well done for restoring it properly

looks like its nearly there, good luck

Looks good, glad you are looking after it and giving it the time and attention I couldn't.

Get some decent pics up with the new wheels on just to rub it in a bit. :D

Are you happy with the quality of the repair to the spare wheel well? I'm not sure why I noticed it, but it doesn't seem up to the same standard as the rest of the car (very nice indeed).

It may be absolutely fine underneath - just thought I'd make sure you've seen it…
