Yes, they were good to deal with and hit their self-set target delivery wise. I haven't checked it thoroughly as I didn't want to unpack it at work. I'll be driving in to work tomorrow to bring it home as I'm sure the commuters on the train would not appreciate me banging into them.

Gav, this is another one I bought which had a few cracks but was in much better shape to begin with. The one that came with the car crumbled with every touch.

Sneak peek...

I would like to offer you this service in Sydney. I will even drive it for you free of charge.

You said it, they are period correct. I wouldn't be changing them.

Looks great with the hurricane wheels. When was it last painted?

Welcome aboard Wayne. Let me be the first to ask for photos of your car... :-)

Sounds like a fun car and kudos to you for doing all the work. Welcome :-)

Good luck with your inspection. Wonder what that knob is to the right of where the ashtray should be?

Hopefully the parts car will come to the rescue there. Might need doors though...
