Thanks guys. It looks much better in the pics than in person. The aim has been to sort it out mechanically before concentrating on the details of how it should end up looking. I have considered more of a race car look (based on this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WUQzoOF8-SA car) with wide wheels, arches etc. but also doing a restoration to factory spec, including changing the colour back to Palm green/Protea white. Changing the colour obviously means engine must come out again and a full strip down, including subframes if I want to do it properly. Keeping the British racing green means I can just strip out the interior, windows, lights and bright work, so that is quite tempting but then the engine bay paint could also do with a respray.

I'm dreading having to pull it all apart again, so I've just been enjoying it as is. But to do it justice it really needs a respray and a new interior. I'll make up my mind before the end of the year.
