New paintwork looks spot on. . You don't hang about do you   Looking forward to more updates.

Thanks. I'm not a professional sprayer but I'm pleased with how its turned out. Nope don't hang around, I want it back on the road so I can enjoy driving it

Looks great!  

Cheers. I'm looking forward to putting all back together now and getting it on the road

Slowly started putting the car back together

Suspension temporarily fitted just so the car can be pushed onto the trailer to take it back home







In the process of fitting the roof lining. The original sound deadening was glued back in first but I don't have a picture of this



Roof lining fitted



Windscreen, door seals, rear side windows and tailgate rubber all fitted

love the progress. hard part is over now mate  

Awesome colour mate. Looks amazing.    

Excellent work, coming along nicely.

You don't hang around lol  car looks great mate, keep the pics coming for inspiration

Wow what a transformation! Read this topic a while back, when you were stripping it down, checked back today and Boom it's in paint. What the hell! Mines got pretty much no rust and it's still sat in the garage, bare waiting for paint lol.

Damn I hate people making progress and and doing a good job on their cars!  

Looking good, can't wait to see your car evolve  

Matt

Thank you everyone for the positive comments Got a bit more done

Steering column strayed



Two new wings, stoned chipped in black on the inside and sprayed along with the tailgate. Stared to prep the door and trial fitted the door and wings. I need a passenger side door if anyone knows for a decent one



Closed up of the spray job

Very impressed - Keep the updates coming.

Looking good mate  

Andy.

Thanks both - Progress has been a little slow recently for different reasons but I've got a little bit more done

Rear lights, tailgate, rear screen and bumper fitted. Rear lights will be changed for standard lights once the car is on the road



Bonnet catch refurbished



Tailgate strut refurbished



Tailgate catch refurbished





Hopefully my sound deadening sheets will be here this week so I can get them fitted and put the dash, heater matrix and carpet back in

Gorgeous mate.

Thanks. Yeah it is even though things seem to have slowed down abit

Quick picture of the underside. Only one I have at the moment.



Sound deadening fitted. Closest to the original I could find. These pads are designed to attract noise so there is no need to cover the full panel



Original sound deadening and heater matrix re-fitted



Hopefully my new door (Thanks Smudger & Simon for this ) will be here today and then I can get it sprayed along with the drivers door and bonnet, get them fitted so the car is water tight get it home and start making some progress again.

Looking good Andrew - coming along nicely.
