Lovely. Henley Blue has grown on me too, I never looked at it much but my other half got one and I now really like it. Hers is a 92 City, not as smart as yours though (has dents all over it from hoodlums)

Cheers Aaron! Took it to RJM in Hedge End, really happy with what Rich has done.

I can't make the Xmas meal, can't do Wednesdays at all during term time which is why I never turn up :(

Hehe thanks well what can I say... it was off the road for 7 weeks having LOADS of bodywork done to make sure it sees a few more MOTs, so took the opportunity to spruce it up and change the wheels :proud: Bit of an effort being without a car but worth it now. I run Explorer Scouts on Wednesday nights so those evenings are out for me but free most other nights. Defo up for some more weekend shows next year and hoping to do L2B!

Thanks dude! I was serously considering changing the colour when I first got it but now 100% keeping it original.

Thanks :-)

 

Removing the soundproofing was HARD! I don't have access to power tools so used a screwdriver, a hammer, sandpaper and lots of white spirit which helped to dissolve it. Took a whole night to do but was satisfying in the end and perfect to paint over. Didn't notice much difference in cabin noise after which was a bonus.
