The list is getting smaller day by day :thumbsup
powdercoated parts are now done apart from the trailing arms

Image

The wheels arrived and are very nice :boogie

Image

I cleaned and wire brushed the underside then started painting.

Image

Got both the rear windows in now

Image

and the rear light lenses dusted off and fitted

Image

I need to give the underside a few more coats then it will be stone chipped.
