some slight progress

Post by seb »

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.
