That is a shed load of progress you've made there. Excellent stuff. That is going to be a very sorted car once you have finished.
Love the Caddy and the MG actually.
Keep going!

Hello everyone. I've been very busy, haven't had much time to update this thread. Here is a few pics again until i get time to do the write up. (have to do them as posts because my internet doesn't like me putting up more than one pic at a time.
)Cheers, john

Wow. You have your work cut out there. I admire people with the skill to do repairs like that and I also envy people with the time to spend on their cars. Looks like a fantastic workshop to work in and lots of great cars in there.

Good work. Great to see another Dolomite being saved from the dreaded tinworm.
Keep up the enthusiasm

Mate that thing looks EVIL!!!
I Love it!
I also have racing style bonnet latches mounted to the rear of the hood. Are yours functional or for looks?
Good luck with the repairs, I'm at about the same stage you are, but my major issue lies with the electrical system. Lucas........ 'nuff said really

Woah to think that car was caned around the race track. Just glad it never collided with anything looking at the structure! 

Re: MY SPRINT VXG 707N (W london)
keep up the good work, looks like there is enough work to keep you busy !
The state of those guards and underlying pillars is scary, the rust really took a hold.
nice workshop
Keep going, great to see the enthusiasm
