Quick photo of a Cabrio that I am restoring for a customer. This shows it as delivered to Pro-strip in Nottingham. I have plenty more photos that I can post of the car prior to that stage and as it is now. It has had all rust cut out and repaired has been primed, seam sealed everywhere and stonechip coated underneath and engine bay prior to top coating which starts next month. I am looking for various bits and bobs for the car which I will list in due course in the hope that someone has them. Attachments:

This is what you get back. If your shell is good and strong there really is no alternative to this. The car had masses of underseal and gunk all over it. I removed 25 kilos of it prior to stripping. It took 4 of us to lift it into the trailer and 2 to get it back out! Attachments:

This is where we're at now. Seam sealed and stonechip coated underneath and engine bay. Top coat on next, then build up. Attachments:

Looks fantastic! Nice work! I take it someone is going to get a big bill then? I've got odds and sods in my garage and loft. Give me a shout if you need anything.

Please do post more photos and provide information on the nature of the repairs effected (and costs would be interesting as well).
Thanks for posting!

At the moment I am looking for a pair of rear shocks with top mounts that haven't been eaten away, an O/S front wing and if anyone has photos of the underbonnet around the engine in detail I would be most obliged as I didn't take that bit apart so am a wee bit unsure of pipe runs etc. Thanks in advance.
