More photo this is how i purchased it , Less wheels. it was panited in [ bermuda blue pearl ] 12 month or more before i purchased it buy my mate who sprayed it the colour it is now. i hated it that colour hents the change to orange tinter

This photo shows the damage front guard not that bad but it still warranted its removal
and you can see the crapy bonnet safety pins , witch are long gone now

Posted Image

these next too are photos of when i removed the left sill and guard fitting a new bottem
section to the guard and plug welding the sill on :hhummm good fun
i found it just as easy to cut along the top of the sill . then you simply weld along the edge of the door opening easy this and drivers side pan was all the rust even the sill wasent that bad on the inside

Its been an awesome transformation Dave. I reckon it couldn't look much better. I also like the minilites. I have seen them on other cars and they look like crap, but they suit your car, plus they are something different to the usual hotwires etc.
