Am I right that you had this car for restoration from 2007 and started on it in 2012?
That's a total of 11 years BUT, looking at the end result, the wait has definitely been worth it!
Well done and thanks for the constant updates.
All we need now are some photographs of the car with you driving it around some lovely countryside.... please?

This looks absolutely lovely. And no slammed suspension or snow-plough on the front valance.

This project actually started on the 15th December 2005 and it passed the MOT on the 15th November 2018 which makes it 13 years to be more exact ...
However, since this was my personal project and I wanted it "as good as new" but maintaining the original colour and specs, I had to work on the customer cars first in order to pay the rent!!! Anyway it was certainly worth the wait and I'm pretty happy with the end result ...

Final pictures with all the details ...
























BTW Will, ALL my restores are stock standard respecting the original specs ... the owners can then go ahead and mod it anyway they like.
