So i've finally got my car out again after being sorn for a couple of months. just finished painting the bonnet badge panel and headlights. I'm really happy with the way it came out its a good colour match. (the bonnet was a slightly different colour before). Doors and quarters next!

Your car looks great Rich, have you lowered it at the front? If so what suspension have you used?
