Well it’s been a while since getting the GT back , COVID pretty much killed off my first year of having it back on the road , all shows cancelled etc but lately have managed to get a couple of thousand miles on the clock and a few runs out with local clubs, I absolutely love it , honestly is a joy to drive , can’t stop smiling and makes me happy seeing others people’s reaction to it as well . 
I’ve added a new set of ‘veltone’ carpets since it’s been home ,  (keeping  the original shabby carpets tucked away in the loft ) and sorted out a rattle through the remote to the gearstick which was down to lack of correct greasing on my part when I cleaned it up, filling the fuel tank up with £27 is still a novelty as well , hope to see your projects out and about as the shows all open up again

What a great project and what a fantastic outcome! I'm currently in the process of restoring mine, its a 95 Sidewalk and its rusty, so seeing what you've done has really given me hope! :D

Looks fantastic! I'll need to sit down with a cuppa later on and have a look from start to finish. Good to hear you're using her too and not leaving her in the garage. Enjoy her, you deserve it!
