Donor shell has arrived.



Well its took a while but well worth the wait. The donor Spitfire 1500 has provided us with a fantastic canvas to work with.Needing only a couple of small repairs in the boot area and battery tray, i have decided to replace both rear wings and bot outer sills to make sure all is 100% then its off to SPL for a full body strip of all rust, sealers and anything else that's not good metal along with both doors and boot lid.
The Engine parts are slowly coming back too and the first build has already begun, the con rods are fantastic with lightning and end to end balancing then fully shot peaned to relieve any stress pints.
Work on the body will commence this week as needs to be ready for dipping appointment next week.
Till then..
