Arrival! 28th March 2014

The car arrived yesterday and we got to work on it quickly. We've taken the bonnet off and removed the headlamp glass, chrome bumpers and headlamps themselves. There was even more good surprises for us as well, because underneath the bonnet there hardly any rust and the inside of the bonnet has minimal rust, and it is just more proof to suggest that the 21777 on the clock is actually the correct figure. We've begun taking out the interior, all glass and leather pieces so that we can preserve them and not have the chance that we could crack the glass or crack the leather even more than it is. This will also reveal any rust on the interior of the car.

I'll upload some pictures of the progress tomorrow once we've done a bit more on the bonnet. 

We haven't worked on it today because we went to source new tools (mainly airtools) and are beginning to write a list of small jobs which I can do when my dads at work such as cleaning up parts and preparing them to be sent off to the powder coaters/zinc plater/chrome plater.

Heres a mix of photos from the showroom and our garage at home.
