Hi Deano it was good to see you at the show the other week and to catch up with you. These are the wheels that I picked up I have cleaned and polished and repainted them.

Don't mind doing the top coat is the prep work that takes all the time and effort. And then the polishing up.

Don't I know it! I've spent hours on the Elf together with the help of @lex (thanks for that M8) and of course Deano and still haven't quite got it right yet!:mad: Still got to replate both doors for top hinges, just hope I don't have to re-skin them as they are original and are sound otherwise.
that roof looks floorless. great job and those wheels are really nice. oh i like the mobile phone too, never seen one with ears before :D ... cool! cheers

Hi Alex, Fitted the arches and trim to both sides, just in the middle of sorting out the rear brakes as I know they will not pass a mot. I think that should be all for the mot. Still got to do the inside ( seat, carpet, headlining etc ) and finish doing the lights etc on the outside. Then I should be able to take for it's mot.
