Yes (its a slide sun roof - doesn't tilt) & if it wasn't for that the car would have been in my garage around October (look at the date of the last posting). Gee I might even be driving it now.

I've planned it out in my mind ready to start some work this weekend (rear bushes, get the fuel tank in it etc etc). But there is the little matter of constant heavy rain that makes this doubtful. Hopefully the rain stops overnight, the trailer that I'd secured isn't in use elsewhere & the wife's car is available to tow the little sucker home. If this doesn't happen tomorrow I'm going to be grumpy this weekend.....................

Very nice, I just started masking to start painting myself.
It will be interesting to see who finishes first.
A pic with the Yellow one would be good.

Good luck with it David.

That should be you - I've got a motor at the machine shop & I can't see the motor coming back together for a month or so. I'll just be doing a few bits & Pieces until the motor is in thr car & it 'runs'. The interior is the last piece in the jigsaw and I haven't really got started on that (it might get put on the back burner if the expnses get too high).

Yes, the interior is the part that gets difficult. The panel work can be repaired (at a cost) but some of the interior parts are getting hard to find.

I'm missing one of the release levers on my Scheels and a pair went for $50+ on Ebay [:u] Also i would love a mint set of RS door trims to suit a coupe but they're not around that much either.

I guess it's a decision whether to go original or aftermarket........I know which might be cheaper!

Car's looking fab Dave - Gotta love white
