Add some extra welds to the captive nuts on the heelboard. Never enough weld on those puppies.

Loving your work and attention to detail.  Your GT will be superb when it's finished.  Can I ask how you have gone about re-plating the parts and fastenings in the shoe box pictured above,  or have you gone for all new ones?  I have seen some DIY plating kits for sale,  but not had any experience of using them.  I look forward to your reading you updates.

I had the parts re plated by a local(ish) metal finishers,it was £40 for the lot,I think it is worth the effort as there is nothing worse than seeing rusty nuts re used !!!! :)

Love the early 1275GTs real classics, keep up the good work. Love the colour and the interior very '70s
