Not much to report Jesse, few minor things sorted

Have had grill & mirrors & rear tail light garnishes repainted (came up mint)
Started sorting out Lewis with upholstery work & started mock fitting up some interior plastics
Reconditioning the fender mirrors.

Hope to get under the car over weekend and sort out drive shaft hoop design & start on door mechanic fitout amongst other things.

Will get some more pics posted up if anything to show :)

- Rakaia possible but probably unlikely, silly season is here already after all!
