I have only just discovered this thread and have spent the last couple of hours reading every line and all i can say is well done to Rob for sticking with this and for keeping cool calm and collected when im sure he felt like blowing his top. I cant express how sorry i am to see what happened to your car initially but now after some seriously proper grafting and people who actually know some bodyshop / painting techniques from their shoe laces, the car is a stunner once more and a credit to all those involved whether it be Rob for the dedication, the people involved in the restoration, or the Zoners for offers of help / parts / or just spur on messages - well done everyone, and i wish you many happy miles in your stunning chromie-cab Rob :-)

This old bus repays whatever i do for it, every time i drive it.
Russ, you are spot on, have met some really sound people due to this car and this place, and
dare say I'll meet plenty more.

spook, I'm always at it mate. :)

Thats so true Rob about the car repaying you whenever you drive it, likewise. The Zone is such a hive of sound people and long may it continue that way :-)

Andy, if you recall an old XTC song from the eighties, substitute the word
Nigel with Coco. Cold dish, best served and all that malarkey.
