Thanks every one for the comments, i really appreciate them ! it makes me keep going!
Anyway here are more pictures as promised
Engine all back together and runs silky smooth, starts at the turn of the key :mrgreen:
still need to put scuttle cover on, put water washer hose in and fill holes in with blanking grommets
seats have been re-trimmed to as near as original
New carpets and boot liner from newton commercial, really impressed with them
Starting to put all the interior back in, ive been waiting for this for a long time
New rear lights from Crazy Quiffs
The colour of the car looks different in every picture :?
Hope you all like what ive done so far, im just waiting for the chrome bumpers and chrome grill surround to arrive from Crazy Quiffs, and will get some more pictures up soon.
Thanks
Jim

Realise this is an old thread but I really like your car and some quality work has gone into it. I've just bought an "N" but cant find out much information about it. Do you mind me asking is your interior how it would of originally looked from the factory as I want to put mind back to standard.
