Still at it, I love the red door cards with old English white.

Used TRG vinyl paint, Scarlet 339 to cover the sun bleaching, very happy with the result.

We also bit the bullet and finally bought an industrial sewing machine to make new seat covers. This one came from a lovely bloke in the west midlands whose dad used to run the fabrics department at Longbridge. It's a lovely original BMC era machine. Looking forward to practicing with this.
