Just kidding matey, i think your paint job is superb!

You'll be fine for the IVA! you've done a superb job and I've no doubt it'll sail through!

My aim is to try and get to Exeter at the end of the year in mine, fingers crossed, as i promised Gaz (who i bought if off) a drive!

When is Exeter?

I was hoping for donnington for me but I doubt I can squeeze IVA and dvla sorting the car out by then so maybe total kit live.

Deff Stoneleigh next year though

Exeter this year is: Saturday 26th to Sunday 27th October
http://www.exeterkitcarshow.co.uk/

I know it's a trek for some, but it's my local show as it's only an hr down the M5 for me!

If we are both on the road and you do come down, stop off on the way and we'll go in convoy

Failing that, I'm definitely up for Stoneleigh next year!

That is looking really nice! That interior is superb, it would take a complete Countach annorack <hello> to pick up on the very minor differences to a real one.

I do like the extended instrument binacle with the double din head unit! Are you going to wire that in to a reversing camera?

Hi Dave,

Already wired in to a cam. I purchased a number plate holder that has it built it. Think they are used for caravans but looks good. Sorry didn't get a pic

Need to get a new alternator as this one is knackered! Temp sensor isn't working so need to get a new one, kenlowe with adjuster maybe?

Will post pics of it over the weekend, sorry haven't done so so far. Can't stop smiling
