Ok final updates are here folks.....the car is now finished !!

Just needs a small pin dent taken out of rear quarter, (booked) and an MOT and thats it !! Quite sad actually as i have nothing to do now lol !!

Anyways some final pics taken this past weekend.....it was a great weekend, so i machine polished her with G10, then polished it and removed it with the 1500rpm twin head buffer, hand polished and then lifeshined her. See what you lot think.....14 months of hard graft has come to an end
