110 pages :nerd:
  :grin:

Its remarkable that you have got it this far and I am sure that its more than worthy of a show or two even if it isn't concourse  :wink:

It's car park fodder at the moment IMO.  depends if I can get on the paint mission soon.  whens the next popular show that you boys will be going to?

I'm hoping to make everything that's on in June,  Volksfest etc, also the IOW show that DH posted up maybe.....

and that is where you are WRONG  :shocked: :lipsrsealed:

With a Picture of HOW IT WAS on the day of the accident, and then one or two little ones of  progress including the inner wing change, and a write up of what you have done ( including most is on an open drive not in a garage )  on a board out the front of the car, then it is VERY show worthy and would attract a LOT of attention  :wink:

and more importantly be inspiration to others :afro:

Cheers Chuff, I hope to get the paint the same all over on the outside at least ASAP and then I will be happy but I like your idea.   :cool: 

I made a mistake though, I started doing all the kit and replacement parts with halfrauds satin black, in all honestly the quality is amazing but its sooooooo fecking expensive, didn't really notice the cost as it was done over a longish period but to do the rest is going to be too much, I know there is cheaper paint to buy but I don't want a sh*t finish.  Either way, when i find cheaper paint I may as well key the whole car as whatever it is won't match what's already been done..

Not sure but they do both satin and matt, so you need to ask.
