Default my frst restoration

Hey people,
we bought my FRST in March, and it is almost finished... (just trying to decide what to do with the wheels)
Here are some piccy's from start to finish...
Just in case you were wonderng about the gazebo, we have done all of the work ourselves, including the paint work
By the way, its best to put your hood up when you are spraying, there is a piccy of Marc's (cossie-spen) hair just after he'd finished... tee hee
Let me know what you think
