Default The start of my Series 2 resto...

Hi folks

ive decided to take my s2 off the road and do a resto on it (due to the radiator pi$$in me off)

so heres the pics of the car as I bought it:














ive put a new clutch in, got a set of 17"s and painted them graphite grey, fitted a set of koni adjustables and a scorpion system. Ill get pics up tomorrow of the way it is the now. but from here on in, ill be hopefully restoring the full car and report back here with the progress

First off is the sunroof tray, if anyone can point me in the rightr direction??
