LOL nothings ever easy hey. Just got to keep pushing. There will always be one more thing left to do. But at least it keeps one busy and out of trouble. With the exception of the wife. you'll always have some kind of issue with her because your spending to much time with your "other wife".  :lol:  

MK1CRAZY YAHOOOOO!!!!!

That is just not fair. No wonder some of these projects go so quick. Those guys are probable also single. Good luck mate. Once the car is done and your rolling down the street I'm sure you'll be getting allot of proposals.  :lol:

Sounds like a plan. I'm still searching for a bargain on some of those small bumpers. Very expensive this side to buy them new.

Looks nice.

it is quite rough and not really useable as is but recon it'll be fine once the chrome has been removed and powdercoated (I hope at least anyways!!)

it's pretty damn solid underneath all the dirt and I am happy it's like that coz I dunno if I would be impressed if I found more stuff to sort!
slow progress tho as crawling under the car on my back in a bunch of 22 year old dirt and water is not particularly high on my jobs I like to do list!! ;)
