        a wee update of i've done so far ,in all honesty i could have had the car finished a lot earlier but ,work,family commitments and the lack of the green stuff has kind of stalled it a bit,but getting there

        First pic was going to use custom door cards but made a pigs ear of refurbing the rear door cards (sorry Ordav) it can be sorted just cannt be bothered the now but the door cards i had were in really good nick so not sure what to do now

            got most of the interior in pics donnt do it justice really as the back seat is mint ,cleaned and repainted the rear shelf and rear door cards got the carpets profi cleaned and they came out really new front seats are/were mint but the previous owner mislaid the material of one of the seats after a minor repair so will need to retrim both seats
