    Hi Robert, I very much admire you for the excellent work you are doing on bringing a rusty droop snoot back to it's former splendure and showroom spec too.

    Keep the brilliant work going with plenty of pics if you can. In gleaming Signal Yellow you will end up with a real stunner.

    Well done.

    Tim.

    Good work there, Escort-tec saved the day for me also with a mint front end. Actually work your doing seams similar to whats been done to mine although didnt have to replace rear quarters just outer and inner arches.

    Good luck.

    Peter.

    more work

    I abandoned the Hadrian floors and went for 2 expressed steel ones.
    great job, they fit well and line up with original production joints.
    inner sills come right up to the door cut outs.
    one side done , I replaced the plate between the sills at the rear jack point.
    started on the rear arch repair now so I can finish welding floor /wheel house area.

    update pics

    Got the new front in place, all lined up perfect. All measurments same as original.
    Did a bit of repair work on my heater bubble. Repaired inside water shield, primed & sealed inside before welding back.
    refitted my own dash. Just waiting for battery tray, need to spot it in place before fitting front panel.
    Will attack the floors next.
