Firstly, Bob I conceed those cars are actually quite attractive provided they haven't been rolled or had a 'crocodile' tank walk over them

With the poop weather this weekend, I didn't get much done. I got the nose panel back from sandblaster....in the pouring rain...under a tarp. My shoes are still drying from the muddy yard at the engineering co. who does my stripping. On the more possitive side, we got 75mm of rain in 48hrs (3 inches). It's 'good for the wheat' as Basil would say!

Did get some disassembly & blasting done for one of the seat sliding mechanisms. The seat base/back itself will be blasted professionally, later this week.

I'm having trouble uploading photos right now, so I'll edit this & add more tomorrow.
