1 week later here is what the finished product looks like:

I decided to go with porsche black with a pearl/flat black for engine bay, doors and the inside of the boot/satin black for the dash. I am happy with all three choices.

Waiting on fatmat to arrive then be able to put these parts in











Heres a few more photos of my eleanor at the moment, it doesnt look like ive done much, but a lot of fiddly work has been completed ie: roof liner, front window/back window, door seals and rubbers, disk brakes finally arrived from RRS, and most importantly the wheels.















Hoping to fit engine, gearbox, clutch etc. in the next couple of weeks. minister of finance has released some more funds. so should be able to make some real progress in the next month or two. :rub:

Look at your car. Now back to mine. Now back to yours. Now back to mine. Sadly, yours isn't mine. But if you stopped buying dodgy cars and bought an 67, yours could be like mine. Look down. Back up. Where are you? ...You're on MOCA, reading the signature your signature could be like! Anything is possible when your car looks like my car...................

Great job, This is what inspires me with my 67. Could you let me know where you purchased your steering wheel??
