done a bit over the weekend,fitted strut-brace and replaced a couple of broken lip clips on the front valance.the bonnet is on but needs lining up properly.i drove it [only in my street] and i can get all the gears etc also fitted the steering linkage and what a horrible job that was 
i lost the will to live after this and still have the new zaust to fit and finish off 3 wheels that are all prepped up. it's fallen behind schedule a bit but not by much.

Nice work. Plenty of money too come off that more door fragger.
I rather like the new wheels.
BTW I haven't forgotten about Wash wipe parts I'm just having a faff with them.
