That paint looks fantastic! Nice to see a Black Beauty in such fine fettle. Didn't read every page of this thread. What's with the Naca duct in the hood though?

ps...where did you get those door cards from...and seat covers for that matter.

Can't beat a nice B-reg Lux! (I might be a bit biased). Yours appears to be in much better shape than mine though...

Thanks for that name. I'm looking for some nice interior parts to put into a spare car project. Were they crazily expensive?

There is still plenty of paint work that needs doing on the girl! In places it feels as if someone has been grinding near the car and the debris has landed on her and rusted. But she scrubs up well :D
