Also my steering Boss arrived today from northwestminis £21.50 with a landy logo, after a bit of searching through my boss's stores, which is more like a cave of useful scrap I found this steering wheel which is just the job, well happy with it.

I really like that, what colour is it?

Its a hammerite industrial acrylic, cant remember the exact name i'll have a look on the tin when i next go to the garage.

Its the closest paint i could get that is nearly matalic looking, but is still a straight colour with no lacquer required, so i can still polish scratches out of it etc.

Should be pretty durable too.
 
Coming together nicely! I need to expand my practical skill I think, My doors are in bad shape and there is a nasty hole in the passenger footwell! :/ That is my next job, got a friend who has a welder so we will tackle that when the sun comes out and stays out :)

But that will be a lovely landy once complete :)
 
That looks fantastic , love the colour, am still thinking what colour to paint my 90 , and thats high on the list

Well done

I was told to put the inserts on the out side, but i thought they are better on the inside for better security.
