Cant you find something a bit less obvious to hold your front facia on? Those big bits of white tape do stand out a bit.

Only kidding, looks great amazing what a bit of TLC can do.

yes, your old trailer was a godsend to many Club members Chris, I seem to recall
when I borrowed it, Martin dropped it off at my house as he'd just fetched 'Tinny'
from France with it.

So what's the plan? get it on the road with the minimum needed and have a rolling project or do a full resto? What is it with these cars that bugs and vermin love them so much?!
