Changing the door cards today to match, fitting seat belts and maybe Ariel if I can figure out how to adapt one to the original wing mount.

Great work Will and congratulations on completing the resto! It looks great.

Hopefully the new owner joins the club.

Any further projects planned Dolomite shaped, or have you scratched that itch now?

Best wishes

Thanks Matt👍

The plan is to give the SE a fresh coat and let it go, give the auto a fresh coat and enjoy it, then let it go when my final project is finished... which I’ll be keeping😁

I am the new owner of Tango, and live down in Kent.

As soon as Will let me know it was for sale, we arranged a meet after Covid restrictions were lifted, agreed the price, and that was it job done.

Will kindly finished Tango off and it was collected last Monday.

I spoke to Will about what I have planned for Tango this year which includes gas shocks all round, some new rubber, and a look at the cooling system. A new radiator and electric fan will be going in next week.

Will keep the board up to date with progress, but Will did a great job.
