It will need sand blasting next as it's been sat outside for 3 years.

It's gotten pretty rusty unfortunately. :(

 

All of the new metal is not a fetching shade of brown...

I still have it but no more progress since the last post.

I just haven't the time to do anything with it at the moment.

 

Cheers

It really isn't......
It's been uncovered like that for more than 2 years now.
I couldn't get any pics of the inside as it's full of subframes and panels.
