Motor looks awesome, as does the dash... man I wish I had one to repair :)

 

What's the next step?

Going to paint in 2 weeks time.

Still collecting some parts - like this sprinter badge - I need one more to complete car

Times ticking on, she is off to paint this coming Monday,

Final prep on panels, and still couldn't believe how good a condition the doors were in!

 

 

 

Keep you updated with pics, once she is in Paint.

Nice work mate. That is one great looking little ride.

Just wondering who did your chrome work? Are you happy with it
