A few more pics of progress,a bit of “persuasion” required to get the doors right but worthwhile.

Some nice work happening there Tim, it is the little things that make the difference and will show in the end. Looks like it is in good company too, with an E-type and Alvis.

Thanks Kev and Grant.
Just scurfing back as the new door sat really high in that area so down to metal and get everything sat right.
Yes she is in good company with the cars and folk around her.Since my car was in last a new face has joined and been working on mine,obviously got rattling and he had done a relatives previously.
Further chatting and I was graciously invited to view his relations cars.When things have calmed I am off to see some Interceptors and an FF.
A few more bits to be done on mine as far forward as the wings,then a pause whilst they tackle other customers jobs.Front part of the car to be done later in the year,a few more pics shortly of the final part of this bout and hopefully I will have more to show in the Autumn.

Roughly 1/3 of her sharpened up in readiness for paint so a little closer to completion.
