That is looking nice now, but I do like white cars!
I'm leaning that way myself!

Looks absolutely brilliant, you are a few steps ahead of me , I can use your rebuild pictures as a reference for mine !
Thank you! I often check on your build for inspiration on this car

Hopefully the taillight rubbers last. I've bought a set of them too and I'd be pretty upset if they don't. I suppose an alternative would be to measure them up and buy rubber sheets and cut them to size?

The way the lamp to body seal is shaped, I doubt flat pieces of rubber would work. I just wish more effort was put into the quality.

Are there any other alternatives for this particular seal?

Good originals.

I guess those would be very difficult to find. Sigh.

I like the leather wrapping on the steering wheel. It's been done very well.

Still the original covering that's received a lot of care by me

Pulled finger and made a little progress on this today. Fitted up the brake and fuel lines, before throwing the steering rack on. Nothing has been tightened up yet - need to put the steering column and wheel in first. Decided to fit a new front to rear brake pipe. Quite tempted to replace all the hard lines now. Just need to make some progress on the front frame so I can fit that as well :

2020 didn't see much progress on this car. The front subframe was supposed to be my lockdown project, but other work/cars got in the way of that. Made some decent progress in terms of finishing the subframe assembly :
I do need to get some split washers for the CVs and have a new brake hardline made up, but otherwise it was time to fit to the car :
I haven't tightened anything up properly yet - I need to get some washers for the new mounting bolts that I thought I had had already. There's something about a straight valence and a subframe that isn't body colour :
