Yup, just rearranging my room now to keep everything tidy! not gonna put any of the nice new bits in yet.. seems pointless if they are just going to get damaged whilst I work on her, some of the smaller bits like the gear knob & ashtray should be the final pieces in the puzzle ;)

Yup me too, they're glass so heavy but a nice period item.

Just been out for a bit and stripped down the front, felt quite sad when I removed her badge :D also removed the horn & washer bottle, this is because they'll need relocating when I put the FG front on.. oh and I'm scrapping the fresh air vents so those ducts & pipes have been removed.

Tomorrow I'll carry on removing bits, could've easily done it today but I'm trying to space things out so I won't get bored waiting for the garage :D

They look good though >_<.

You'll feel awesome when you get the front off, I did.
