Let the restoration commence.

The car is now off the road and ready to be stripped. We were kind of forced into taking it off the road due to the exhaust falling off Not to worry, it was getting a new one eventually anyway. I have taken a few pictures of it pretty much as it was when we bought it. The only thing I've done is repaired and painted the drivers door mirror.

Today Honda delivered all the panels that I will be replacing.

Although you can only visually see rot on the bonnet and N/S wings, I did find filler in the O/S wings. So we decided to replace them also. (well, the job needs doing right I feel) Thankfully the doors and sills are rot and filler free.

We are keeping it yellow but a brighter shade. The wheels will be ditched in favour of some black ones (yet to be sourced) and the side intakes/air scoops will be painted black.
