Any update on this refurb?

[taffr]

firstly sorry for the lack of updates on the car, anyway the lads at berkshire body shop (sweep, squid and co) have done loads since my last visit as you can see, link kit is in and it looks awsome, interior is painted with just the firewall to go in there, the boot has a fresh coat of white paint on it with the gutters all freshly painted in blue to match the rest of the car, both rear quarters have been painted after all the rot was taken out of the c pillars, they were full of expanding foam for some reason and were holding water, original fuel cap/opening has been covered up and painted, just the red stripe to go on the exterior, the new rear panel looks loads better than the one that we took off, boot lid battery tray are getting painted and fitted next week and then i can start putting her back together, i need a new exhaust for the pinto as the link bars are know fowling the current exhaust so thats been removed, also need a new boot seal as the old one is passed its sell by date, should be home in the next couple of weeks so i can do some work on rebuilding her, some pics for you to see the progress, some pics af paul andrews new project thats in the workshop too.

i'm well chuffed so far, cheers boys

ps, FAO miniliteman, yes i know.......... new minilites too
