   ...And I was thinking what a skillful restoration it was, to not over-restore beyond 'as new'.
   Superb, John. An absolute joy to behold.

Congratulations John your car looks great. Will you get it finished in time for National Day or Wings and Wheels ?

Yep, nearly complete!!. Thanks for all the comments, will be going to Silverstone classic and W&W. Not sure it will be ready for the national day.
   
   What I'm also going to do is document the restore and provide all the great contacts I have found who have that very useful bit that are hard to find.
   
   Thanks
