What's left on the to-do list now Henry ?

Limited use probably isn;t doing it any favours in some areas, but all credit to you for the work you're doing to keep this one as nice as it is.

And BOOM!! done she starts and runs!!

Here she is!

Needs a new battery OBVS!

But eh here she is!

Looks a tad sad but i'll clean 'er up! ;)

The V8 sounded very nice, more like it had sat for a day not over a year! no tapping and it roars like you wouldn't believe!

Happy days!

The Interior is getting there!

A new draft plastic and the door card replaced.







The REAL WALNUT ;) centre console has been polished and waxed.

Just for some extra shine points.



Also added a new air freshener!



And the "almost complete" interuior.







The steering wheel is next for restoration!
I've ordered some leather paint to do the project, hopefully it'll turn out ok lol :)
