Right! Leaving the colour change till over the winter when ive got time to sort all the dents etcs and a scrape on the nsr arch, along with this i will be getting some wheels, got some in mind and there in someones cellar doing nothing but cant afford to have them powder coated and tyre them up at the mo so that will be my winter projects.

2nite i am going to bob the stereo in and amps and subs, build the frame work for the wardrobe and give the dash and panels a clean, i am going to trim the door panels in the lining carpet if there is enough left after i do the roof, waiting for my spray glue to arrive!!
