Nice one! Their door cars are excellent. As a club, we found them mint, original door cards to copy from so that they could get their tooling just right.
I think Chudd was one of the lucky people who lent his cards, and got a free new set for his troubles!

thanks guys, the doorcards look amazing, but the way they have cut the hardboard is a little off, so to get them to fit takes a little bit of messing about

Still need to get the front sitting a bit lower.

Your car looks awesome
Might be a stupid question, but is it drive-able at that height?

Right guys, i just wanted to warn you all.
Dont buy repro window seals, they are useless. i have had repro rear quarter seals in now for a few years and i have had nothing but trouble.
i have lost count of how many times i have had to take them out to try and stop them leaking.
if you are thinking about buying some, dont do it.
i have just swapped one for a genuine seal and the genuine one fits perfectly, something i should have done a long time ago.
