I hope so mate, its my pride and joy so I'm trying to get it as close to concours condition as reasonably possible...

The cars just been fully undersealed and had a new screen put in, national windows did an amazing job.

I'm going to get the underseal done in the summer. Like I said, I'm not going for concours, but I love the car and can't see myself ever getting rid of it, so The paint and protection (top and bottom) is to keep it looking nice and stopping corrosion.

Totally get your point of view though and you're going the right way to meet your expectations.

My KW V3's have just arrived while I was typing this

Very nice, pics once fitted!

I think concours is slightly optimistic but I would like to get it immaculate. Like yourself I can't see me ever selling.

Just had a quote from Venture Shield for protecting the front bumper, 2 wings (complete coverage rather than partial) & the bonnet (again full coverage). £1,250 + VAT!

Will take my chances & get the front end redone in another 10 years time as per FB's comment.
