This is the build of your car

About time

Interior looks grubby for a low mileage car.

Great find Andy. Looking forward to seeing it. Remember though, you can’t keep them all

I think finding all the specific bits bolts washers spacers and then finding the plastic bits to cover up all the bits we spent hours fitting is the hardest bit. Welding is the easy part of restorations. I’m enjoying the build again though.

Great post. Pictures like this are worth there weight in gold. Good luck with the project.

Spot weld. In standard positions on the top edge. Interesting if they would accept spot/rose weld on the bottom edge to inner sill. Would look original though and they probably won’t even notice. IIRC I’ve done spot/ rose weld on lower edge. If it’s done properly they won’t fail it. If it looks shonky they will.

Class. I’m building a manta in a manta T-shirt 😂

Well done Andy. You will be as good as me one day 😃

It’s about time i got the bloody 4ha built for this

Well it was finished. Then we decided to drop another engine in it. Starter wire touched earth. Fire fire fire. Fire out. Now pissing water from the head. New head gasket. Small jobs to do. Won’t make not billing again 😐

Good luck Dan and we’ll done to Neil and Carl. See you next week to strip the bits down

Nice work Clive. Like you i can't add text between pics so it ruins the story flow
