All good news then:d Your 67 1500 and Roy Wilson's 67 in the Concours. Methinks that'll make for a tough judging challenge!

thanks JD. 😎

picked up the bonnet today, and the last drivers side front wing.

Got all the headlights and indicators back in, so the front end is nearly there.

Need to get some rear light rubbers.

Pics soon............

i wasnt happy with the finish on the backs of the bumpers, despite them only being painted a year ago, so they were flatted back and repainted in the correct silver colour.

Done mine in the same (Smoothrite) a while ago, was wondering what was ''correct.''

I like the inside of the bumpers and overriders. Nice factory look there.
