Soft dash restoration

dunkan · Feb 23, 2015

Headlining is done, i need to get new interior light lenses as they have discoloured and the
panel with the sunroof switches in has also discoloured.

The Boot carpet should be done in the next couple of days.

Tailgate is finished bar fitting the decals and the spare bonnet is nearly free of rust and heading
to the paintshop

Also managed to find new wiper spindle rubbers which was a great result

Mot is booked for next Wednesday, the replacement bonnet is at my mates to be finished, new door seals and stereo fitted, just needs a proper clean now on the inside and then detail the paintwork when my mate fits the bonnet.

And sort out the 5 spoke wheels which i've still not got round to doing

That is stunning. Would you consider a swap for a nice P38.

Dunkan I was only joking (secretly hoping) you would agree to a swap. I could not afford your car and I think if you had my car you would want a massive amount of cash as well to make the difference. That sure is a handsome looking car that I'm sure you are very proud to own.

Thanks Henry.

Interior light lens's are fitted, the front plastic panel has cleaned up quite nicely, also fitted the brake line clips on the rear axle which you can't really see in the photo.
