Nice one Chris, looks pretty tidy and not too much work to do?
I have a Russet car too. Proper old school colour.
Keep us posted on how you get on.

MOT at 16.00 today , All brakes working , welding sorted and everything working as it should . She's a bit lumpy at tickover but runs fine when driving . Insured today for £79 fully comp so it's all coming together !

The exhaust is held on with the bracket under the wheel arch and seems ok . The car passed the MOT with no problems so we're nearly there . Just waiting to get the tax sorted . Car goes really well but is a bit rough at low revs/speed . Bit of carb work to do I think .

Cool well done on the MOT pass, that must be a custom exhaust.
