then bought new wheels.

Image

Image

lowerd the rear will be doing the same to the front soon.

Image

Image

Image

colour coded the wing mirrors

Image

stripped the front to tidy it up and do small amount of welding too.

Image

Image

Image

Image

gave the new front bumper a quick waft over to see how it will look once done propperly. ordoing couple litres of 2k soon.

Image

some of the welding done so far, got to do under the battery tray next.
