So this weekend i finally took the GT for its first drive.
Day started off with a good old wash and then tried to polish a bit of the bonnet and then the roof and it will definitely get a hand polish soon, came out looking quite good.
Drive went well, car didn't get hot at all and didn't miss a beat. Engine mounts are next on the card for replacement.
Also checked behind the rear seat and seems original color would be Protea White roof and Blaze Red perhaps?

Also very happy that all lights work in the back as well.
