So the starion is progressing very slowly, my arm is in cast now so i won't be able to do anything for a while.
So far Have cleaned the front end up with my dad, lots of welding, painting, new brake seal kits, pistons and braided hoses, but it's now looking alot tidier :)
Just working our way through the car a bit at a time, here are a few pictures below

Looking good mate, keep it up. I remember when i was a young bloke working on cars with my Dad. He has been gone for nearly 20 years now so enjoy him and the times you spend together while you can.

Pretty pretty!!! Lots of attention to detail there. You're putting the exterior paint to shame. Keep going... :)

*steering box is leaking oil and has some slight play :(
*rear brakes complete rebuild
*remove all rear suspension and wishbones etc, clean up and paint
*clean up complete underside and sills etc, then underseal
*clean up rear arches, and fabricate new metal to replace where rusted away
*split rear lights and reseal
*respray bumpers
and there's probably more i can't think of right now ha
