Very good deal on the insurance too! Which company quoted it?

Insurance is Classicline. Just waiting for them to phone me to take some money :lol:

Can't wait to get it back and get it finished off. Just need to find the funds from somewhere!

Buckets are satin black. Grilles are body colour. All the glass trim etc is all satin black as well.

Picked the car up tonight. Pleased with the result given it's my prep work :lol: Unloading the trailer on the main road in the dark was a little nerve wracking though!

I'll give it more of a buff up with the rotary at some point. Got the front and rear glass going in tomorrow afternoon, got a pro coming to do that. Put all the clips on ready for the trim, they are very, very tight, getting the trim on is going to be interesting :wtf:

Put the upper door seals on as well, just because I have so much stuff laying around I keep falling over everything. I also need to get the car water tight as soon as possible as it will be living outside very soon.

Got the glass in today and the trim on. Doesn't sit too badly, the RH windshield trim is a PITA though as I can't get it to clip down properly. Will have another go at it tomorrow. Rear one worked out ok. Fitted the lower door seals as well.

Made a start on rewiring the front lights after that, should have it done in the morning. After that I'll get the side windows in. Lots to do!

Must be great to see it back and looking so good after all the work to get it to this stage.
Paint looks very good 8-)
Kudos to you for staying the course, seen owners give up on projects that were less challenging...
Hope you bring it out to one of the big events, would be nice to admire it and see it running .
