I'm working on it to be fair - its a high mileage old girl, 144k, so currently in zed shed with Mike getting major service and oil gasket leaks sorted, water pump replaced (still on original) then its respray and finally wheel refurb - Also considering sending for seat bolsters/base to be reupholstered and existing leather reconditioned. I'm sitting in it for a long time, if not for good as a fun car, so I want it right and looking well. Pics to follow in due course.

Good Shout I have some of exterior, nothing of engine, but, yeah - I'm happy with what I paid for it so even sinking a few grand in it, I'll be about market value, but ill know everything is done to my standards and the paintwork will be fresh and new...
