Its looking great Matt, very impressed, amazing results considering the state the paintwork was in when you picked it up.
When's her first outing?

Good on you Mat... when you get it to a level you will find it pays you back because from then on it is relatively easy to keep there especially as it is not a daily driver.

Well after afew more hours of cleaning, this time its nothing you can see on top but more of it's underneath.

I had the tyres put back on the new wheels this morning and so have afew pic's of what the car will be like once I get the correct wheel nuts.

First pic is with the old and new



And here's one with both wheels

I'm after tapered ends mate or sometimes they call them cone nuts.

Black would be perfect.

Hollow or not doesn't matter mate, I aint fussy, as long as they are black and are tapered, jobs a goodun.

PM me what you want for them and I'll come and collect tomorrow.

There will be other days mate, after the last txt I had from you, my sister called to say she got locked out.

As long as you got everything matched and running, top job.
