I thought I would give a little update on old moosey. I am hoping to bring it to this years cortina day at symonds yat. Fingers crossed it will be there. It now runs and drives. Brakes are sorted. Electrics all work. A new headlining is in the post. Ill try to sort some pics from my phone to show progress. I have also been painting some of the panels too.

Great job :thumbsup: I always remember this car on Robs profile many years ago. Glad to see it's still about.

I did get in touch with Rob years ago when I got the car first time round. I'm not sure if he is even on here anymore to be honest.

I think he moved to Wales & doesn't come on here now as you say.

Here are some more pics of the moose after the headlining has been fitted. I have the glass man coming Wednesday to fit the screens. I sprayed the wings myself just to make the car a bit more presentable.  Got some sierra Cosworth wheels fitted too.

I still have loads of jobs to do. Once the glazier has put the screens in , I need to find some wiper arms. Darren Field is sorting me out a dash pad, vent cover among loads of parts so far in the build so a huge thanks to him and Paul. Dale is sorting me out with the moulding clips I need to mount the side mouldings. So I will be fitting all of that, the rest of the interior needs building. One of my tyres keeps going flat so that needs looking at. I need to put anti freeze in the engine, bolt the exhaust up properly and do a full nut and bolt check. The rear valance needs sorting too. 

There's enough jobs to keep me busy for the next 2 weeks for sure.
