DUFFY3074 1 Posted May 17, 2008 I like the attention to detail on this (And I admire, but disagree :rolleyes: , with your self restraint on the mods front) A job well done. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MrMacca 4 Posted May 17, 2008 (edited) It'll be a sad day when its finished in one way as its such a fantastic thread Martin. Not including the time spent, has it been an expensive resto? A yae or Nae would be sufficient as cost is often a private affair. Will she get a name? :cheers: Edited May 17, 2008 by MrMacca Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
frankie2.8 13 Posted May 17, 2008 My Over riders are just either side of the number plate under the spotlamps. Only real pic I have of the front is in the snow!! Superb resto, I will look forward to seeing it. Are you going to the yat? frankie Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Will she get a name? :cheers: Many thanks MrMacca, I have never added the cost up TBH and as I've been at it for 8 years now it's been a bit like having your new car on HP, but as you know I have done most (nearly all)of the work myself so that in it's self has kept costs down.

Yes Steve I have a brand new set of the 'chrome' rings to go on, I'm just too scared to take them out of the bags at the mo, which is a bit silly because those new over riders cost more. :rofl: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep there just some things you don't do when your restoring a car, keeping track of cost is one of them This is an an immaculate job :cheers: Well it well be when you move the overriders that is.................... :lol: That's where they should be!
