    1975 Series 3 Rebuild (The second time around)

    I would have gone for more of a spin out and about but retired to put my checker plate on to hide my beaten up wing tops :D Also if anyone's on Anglesey, the garage in my picture above is very series friendly. He deals in parts too quite cheap.

    Aaron's 90 rebuild (round 3)

    Looks good :) Looks similar to the old series Paisley green. Thought of going limestone roof and silver cappings with stage 1 V8 grill? Would look a nice combo

    1975 Series 3 Rebuild (The second time around)

All of my fuses and relays are beneath that panel too as well as a common live and common earth which makes...

    1975 Series 3 Rebuild (The second time around)

    Well did everything i set out to do tonight, got the door and the sill on. I was pleasantly suprised to find the door gaps are actually better than they were pre-accident and the door shuts much better now (albeit without a front bit of door seal). The sill needed a bit of fettling to get round...

    1975 Series 3 Rebuild (The second time around)

    Try and use countersunk rivets if you can. I have a tool that allows them to be made from normal pop rivets, much less noticeable as you can put filler over the top and you end with a perfectly smooth panel
