So an update, lots done, decided the down pipe to far gone so have a new one waiting to go on, brought a new radiator, stripped out lights for a clean and refresh, new discs / pads & front springs, TCA & steering joints good, dealt with minor surface rust in offside wheel arch and suspension tower and repaint, slam panel was a mess cosmetically so repainted that as well, lots of other jobs under way around the car, booked in for welding and new front doors fitting on the 30th Jan followed by MOT.
