Welcome
White Zandvort wheels.
Nice.

Later model power windows and top? Will look great once it's done.
Great summer fun these cars. I'd recommend getting a windblokker, kills the cabin noise and wind pressure.

Cheers

thanks for the welcome,
yer i like the wheels but unfortuantly it only came with three :( but ive got a set of p slots to be going on after i finish refurbing them.
no its got manual windows and roof, i will be getting a windbloker but im a bit far away to start thinking about that really. im just trying to sort the body work out as the previous owner had tried to do some repairs but its the worst fillering and paint ive ever seen also got a few rust patches that need to be sorted before the big respray!!
long way to go yet but should look real nice when done.

Just keep at it bud.
Sounds like you've got it planned in your head anyway.
Which is always good.

Yep a nightmare trying to clear up someone else's handy work.  But once it's done you'll have a well sorted cabby.
