REEEEAAALLY can't wait to see how this turns out mate,

firstly..that colour you've chosen, loving it. Reminds me of the florida blue..which is a colour i love.

secondly i think the fact your doing it outside, with rattle cans facing the weathers kind of adds to the character,

and thirdly, its good to see your having a bash at it yourself, instead of buying one, handing over the cash, car comes back mint..never got that with old cars, not really a feel of doing it yourself if your with me?

and, little Q for you,

you mentioned on my thread taking the center console out? i've not looked into it as such but how did you do it?

Jake.

thanks mate , I'm waiting for the weather to warm up a bit for the paint but not too long. as for the centre console it easy its a few screws that connect it to the dash .follow where the radio is around the back of the curve of plastic is the screw holes. Then take the gaitor of with some wriggling and pulling it should come out. i did it with no instruction just follow where the screws are and it comes out easy enough . i love the colour also monster colors are the best paint if your changing colour totally .

Had to put a quick layer of colour on today just to stop the primer absorbing water and me owning a giant pile of rust

You're really not hanging about with this one. Hopefully you'll do Emily proud with it

hope too . found out that the first owner (or one of em) was a vicar or priest or summat like that so in my eyes shes been blessed

I can't find it, but you can get bobblehead/nodding nuns, you need one of those in your life now.

ON THAT !!! was gonna settle for a little crucifix but not being religious think might not be a good idea.

Great to see my old girl getting the TLC she deserves! Can't wait to see more photos! :-D
