I like the shiny exhaust, what make is it?

 

Did you manage to get the GT seat covers made up by an upholsterer?

It's a Fletcher. Yes the covers are being made as I type. Will be collecting them in a few weeks time.

We have had a lot of progress in relation to these seat covers. They are now ready and I will be picking them up shortly. Andy has made an outstanding job of these and I have a few left. If you are interested please message me for more details:

Those seat covers look fantastic, they will really set the finished interior off a treat

Okay, so seat covers are complete, I have a few sets left if anyone is intersted but I'm letting these go on a first come first serve basis. Picked them up today. Drop me a message if you are seriously interested in new front seat covers, sold in pairs only and very limited. Once they are gone there won't be anymore.

They're well smart, shame they're not brown or I'd be treating myself

Made some progress today, cleaned the inside of the car out, degreased and couldn't resist popping a little bit of primer down. Going to spend some time spraying the inside with Zinc primer soon. Daughter also cleaned up the grille.

Well, that was a lot more difficult than I thought. Never primed the inside of a car before, hard work. Need to flat back and give it one more coat and then top coat the inside before the winter comes.

Up for grabs:

 

Just finished stripping what I need from my donor car. If anyone wants the car foc except for a case of Peroni 1f642.png:) please contact me. There's not much left on it, the front end is okay and all of the running gear is in place. I won't split any parts it needs to be gone as a 'whole' car. Important to note that this has no title and cannot be put back on the road, it is a parts car that needs to be scrapped after use. Never been welded 1f642.png
