10 years is relatively quick :)
Looks great, literally back from the dead.
What colour is it?

Well done, that’s an amazing transformation. Car looks fantastic. 202 and supra 5 speed will make for a great driver too.

Got the shell in 94 so sat in shed a while. Monxa blue. It's a LC in disguise. Carby has flat spot, full cable clutch but cable Commodore need to change to UC. Dozen other things but goes like proverbial clappers. Have to check diff ratio.

I've had my LX no-floor for 10 years now. I've cut out rust, but that's about it. Well done!

I'm bit over extended, old as well. Bought XU1 in 2009 stripped and started, it's still on the rotisserie rust work about 2/3 done. Then there's a LC 2 dr almost complete stole few bits been sitting in shed since 1987. There always seems to be something more urgent or interesting needs doing. Been house building for last 3 years
