    Will hopefully have the crack in my N/S Wing rail repaired properly. Re-fit the original rear quarter interior trims and move my speakers to behind the rear seat. Touch up the stone chips on the underside, Swap my engine mounts round so I can fit my air filters!!!!!!! few other bits and bobs.

                              I am planning to join the Cumbria weekend unfortunately no the car is not painted yet almost ready to paint but not quiet. A hugh amount of time has been spent on getting the x-pack kit back to its original condition. Also the guy Im using used to do restoration of RS cars in his spare time as a bit of a hobby as he worked in another bodyshop during the day, he left this job to start his own bodyshop full time and has had so much work my car has slipped and slipped. He is the only person I would trust with the work so Im just having to wait, but Im a patient man and understand that he needs his bumps and knock work to pay the bills as he wont make any real money on my work
