vinny, i have absolutely no idea what so ever how to restore a car, my personal approach is to buy something someone else has already done......... i too am happy to discuss this with you on saturday........ :bounce:

your right lee but to buy something that has been done properly is very big money m8, and if you try to buy on the cheap you never know what is lurking underneath
So if you do it yourself sure it takes longer but hopefully its done right.
So looks like i am going to bite the bullet and get her done rather than buy something else - though i am always looking :geek:

I have just removed one of my wings and cant believe how good the A posts are, so hopefully by the end of the week the car with have no wings front panel or slam panel :cheers:
